My favourite easy snack 🙂
These came out really good except the cheese flavour wasn’t very strong (I used gouda).
Do you think I could add some wilted spinach to the puffs? I think that would give me the flavour I’m looking for….
Brilliant! The simplest thing and so quick and nice.
My mom has been hiding her recipe for years but I think I found it.
made these cheesepuffs last night. we loved it, will have to put more cheese with, though.
thanks
Wish I could post my photo of this! I topped it with cheddar, mozzarella & Avocado. To DIE for!!! Thank you.
