Onion Cheese Puffs Recipes

Steps:

• In a medium bowl combine the mayonnaise with the chopped yellow onion, 3 tbsp fresh grated parmigiano-reggiano, 2 tbsp finely chopped fresh parsley and salt and pepper to taste.
• Remove the crusts from the bread and cut out rounds with a cookie cutter.
• Bake in a low-medium oven on a cookie sheet for 10- 15 minutes, until golden.
• Spread 1 tsp mixture onto each round and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon cheese.
• Brown under broiler for 1 to 2 minutes and serve.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400°F
• Heat water and butter to rolling boil. Stir in flour, salt and garlic powder. Stir vigorously over low heat 1 minute or until mixture forms a ball; remove from heat. Beat in eggs until smooth. Stir in cheese and onion. Drop dough by scant teaspoonfuls 1 inch apart onto lightly greased baking sheet. Bake until puffed and golden, 20 to 25 minutes.
• Tip-Top Puffs: Place pimiento-stuffed olive or 1/2 inch-square cheese slice on each puff. Bake as directed.
• Filled Puffs: Place salted peanut, 1/2 inch ham or bologna cube or half of pimiento-stuffed olive on each puff. Top with enough dough to cover. Bake as directed.

Steps:

• Put oven rack in upper third of oven and preheat oven to 400°F.

• Top each toast with a rounded 1/2 teaspoon cheese mixture, spreading to edge with a small offset spatula or knife. Bake toasts until topping is puffed and golden, about 6 minutes.

Steps:

• Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Bring 1 cup water, butter, and 1/2 teaspoon salt to boil in heavy medium saucepan. Remove from heat; mix in flour. Stir over medium heat until mixture becomes slightly shiny and pulls away from sides of pan, about 3 minutes; transfer to stand mixer fitted with paddle. Add eggs 1 at a time, mixing well after each addition to form sticky dough. Mix in cheese and green onions.
• Using 2 teaspoons, form dough into 1 1/4- to 1 1/2-inch ovals; drop onto baking sheet 1 inch apart. (Can be made ahead. Wrap in plastic, then foil. Refrigerate up to 2 days or freeze up to 2 weeks.)
• Preheat oven to 375°F. Bake cheese puffs until golden, about 30 minutes if at room temperature and 35 minutes if chilled or frozen. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• 1. Preheat the broiler.
• 2. Toast the bread lightly in a toaster oven. Remove the crusts. Cut the slices with a 2-inch round biscuit cutter and spread the rounds lightly with mayonnaise. Put a slice of onion on top of each piece and spread with mayonnaise again. Broil until golden brown. Serve hot.
• Ellen's Tips:
• You can add some chopped fresh parsley on top of the puffs after broiling. You can spread some hot and sweet mustard on top of the onion before the mayonnaise for a spicier version of this recipe.
