Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 8 tablespoons butter
  • Large pinch of salt
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup grated Gruyère cheese
  • 1/2 cup crumbled blue cheese
  • Freshly ground black pepper

Directions

Preheat oven to 400° F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.

Combine water, milk, butter and salt in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Remove from the heat and stir in flour with a wooden spoon until well combined. Return saucepan to low heat and cook, stirring constantly, until mixture forms large clumps and leaves a slight film on the bottom of the saucepan, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and cool for 3 to 5 minutes.

Beat eggs into the dough, one at a time, until well incorporated. Add cheeses and black pepper.

Transfer dough to a pastry bag with a 1/2-inch round tip and pipe tablespoon-size mounds on the prepared baking sheets about 2 inches apart (alternatively, spoon batter in tablespoon-size mounds directly onto baking sheet).

Bake until puffed and golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes. Serve warm or let cool and reheat in a 350° F until hot.
