Powder Puffs image

My mother was renowned for her powder puffs. They cook up and cool to very dry, and will keep for a week or 10 days (I challenge you to keep them that long ;-) ) in an air-tight tin, then you bring them out, fill them, and they are as light and tender as you can imagine! Not really sure how many this recipe will make.

I was really excited to try these powder puffs, but they were a major disappointment. They were bland and flavorless.

These powder puffs are way too greasy. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

These powder puffs are a bit bland for my taste. I think they would be better with some added herbs or spices.
