Recipe(tried): Surprise Cheese Puffs (make ahead)

Appetizers and Snacks
Elly -- Congratulations on this wonderful event. I applaud you and your husband! Great job.

These surprise cheese puffs are one of my personal favorites. Make them ahead of time and keep them in your freezer. (They must be chilled until firm, at least, before baking) You can pull them out of the freezer and bake them just before serving.

SURPRISE CHEESE PUFFS
Yield: 50 puffs

1/2 cup Butter
2 cups Grated sharp cheese
1/2 tsp Salt
1 tsp Paprika
1 dash Cayenne or red pepper
1 cup Sifted flour
50 small 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.

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.

*I have made these with stuffed green olives and small black olives. Both are "to die for." Some of my friends have filled them with date pieces or nuts. They loved them.

Eaten hot the cheddar cheese is the predominant
flavor. And, when hot it is VERY difficult to stop eating these.

When cooled to room temperature the flavor of the
olives inside became more pronounced. They are still wonderful. They did not get soggy as they set at room temperature.

You can fill your cookie sheet when baking these
puffs. They retain their shape (do not flatten) and puff only slightly.
