Nutrition per Serving
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups water
- 1/2 cup (1/4 lb.) butter, cut into chunks
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 6 large eggs, beaten to blend
- 1 1/4 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese (see notes)
- 1 1/2 teaspoons fresh-ground pepper
- Coarse sea salt (see notes)
- Parchment paper
Instructions
- In a 3- to 4-quart pan over high heat, bring 1 1/2 cups water and the butter to a full rolling boil. Remove from heat, add flour all at once, and stir until mixture is a smooth, thick paste with no lumps. Add a quarter of the beaten eggs at a time, stirring vigorously after each addition until dough is no longer slippery. Stir in cheese and pepper.
- Spoon dough into a large pastry bag fitted with a plain 1/2-inch round tip. Pipe in 48 equal mounds on two cooking parchment-lined or buttered 12- by 15-inch baking sheets. (Alternatively, drop dough on sheets in slightly rounded tablespoon-size portions.) Sprinkle each mound with a few grains of coarse sea salt.
- Bake in a 400 ° regular or convection oven until dry and well browned, about 30 minutes. Serve warm (see notes).
