CHEDDAR CHEESE AND BACON PUFFS

1/2 cup milk
2 tbsp butter, cut into small pieces
1/2 cup flour
2 eggs
1/2 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
4 strips bacon, cooked & crumbled
1/4 cup chopped green onion
1/4 tsp garlic salt
1/4 tsp fresh coarse ground black pepper

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

In a saucepan over medium heat, bring the milk and butter to a boil.  Add the flour, all at one time, stirring constantly until the mixture forms a ball and leaves the sides of the pan.  Remove from the heat.

Add the eggs, one at a time, stirring constantly until the mixture is smooth.  Add the cheese, bacon, green onion, garlic salt, and black pepper.

Drop the mixture by teaspoonfuls onto greased foil-lined cookie sheets.

Bake at 350 degrees for 25 minutes or until puffed and golden brown.

 Yield: 36 puffs

Note:  After cooling these puffs may be tightly wrapped and placed in freezer for future use.  To serve, heat oven to 350 degrees.  Bake 5 to 8 minutes until thoroughly heated.
