SURPRISE CHEESE PUFFS
Yield: 50 servings

1/2 c Butter
2 c Grated sharp cheese
1/2 ts Salt
1 ts Paprika
1 ds Cayenne or red pepper
1 c Sifted flour
50 sm Stuffed green olives.

Allow butter to soften; blend with cheese, salt,
paprika and cayenne. Stir in flour, mixing well. Mold
1 tsp of this mixture around each olive, covering it
completely. Arrange on a baking sheet and chill until
firm. Bake in 400 oven for 15 minutes. Serve hot.
Makes 50 puffs.

**NOTE** These puffs are so easy to serve at parties
as they may be made in advance, frozen on a baking
sheet to keep round and stored in a plastic bag in the
freezer. Bake as needed.

Also, I have made these using green olives, black olives, nuts, and craisins. They were all excellent!
