	Gougere 04

		Gougere / Cheese Puffs 1/2 teaspoon salt 1/4 pound chilled butter, cut into small pieces 1 cup water 1 cup less 1 1/2 tablespoons all purpose flour, sifted 4 large eggs 3/4 cup grated Gruyere cheese Combine the salt, butter and water in a medium saucepan. Stirring, bring to a boil over high heat. Remove from heat and add the flour all at once. Beat vigorously with a wooden spoon to create a smooth dough. Stirring constantly, briefly reheat over medium heat for about one minute to dry the dough just a little. Quickly transfer the dough to the bowl of an electric mixer and add all of the eggs and half of the cheese, beating at medium speed until the eggs and cheese are well incorporated. Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Spoon or pipe 2-inch mounds of dough onto 2 non-stick baking sheets, spacing mounds 2 inches apart. Sprinkle the tops of the mounds with the remaining cheese. Bake until golden brown, between 20 and 25 minutes. Serve warm. Yields about 40 puffs.
