---------- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06 Title: Cheese Puff Ring Categories: Appetizers, Cheese/eggs Yield: 6 Servings 3/4 c All-Purpose Flour 1/4 ts Salt 1 pn Cayenne Pepper 1 pn Grated Nutmeg 3/4 c Water 6 tb Butter, cut into pieces 3 Eggs 3 oz Gruyere Cheese, 1/4" cubes Preheat oven to 400F degrees. Lightly grease a baking sheet. Sift together the flour, salt, cayenne pepper, and nutmeg. In a medium saucepan, bring the water and butter to a boil. Remove from the heat and add the sifted dry ingredients all at once. Beat with a wooden spoon for about 1 minute until the mixture is well blended and starts to pull away from the sides of the pan. Place the pan over low heat and cook for 2 minutes, beating constantly, then remove the pan from heat. Beat the eggs together in a small bowl and then very gradually (one tablespoon at a time) beat into the mixture in the pan, beating thoroughly after each addition until the dough is smooth and shiny.

Using two large tablespoons, drop adjoining mounds of dough onto the baking sheet to form a 10-inch circle. Bake for 25-30 minutes until well browned.
