Ingredients

1/2 cup ale such as Bass (pour beer slowly into measuring cup; do not measure foam)
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
Rounded 1/8 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
2 large eggs
1/2 cup crumbled Stilton cheese (from a 4-oz piece; rind discarded)
Special Equipment
a pastry bag fitted with a plain 1/2-inch tip; parchment paper

Steps:

Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 400°F.
Combine beer, butter, and salt in a 1 1/2- to 2-quart heavy saucepan and bring to a full boil over high heat, stirring until butter is melted. Reduce heat to moderate and add flour all at once, then cook, stirring vigorously with a wooden spoon, until mixture pulls away from side of pan, about 30 seconds. Continue to cook, stirring and flattening batter against bottom of pan, until excess moisture is evaporated and a film forms on bottom of pan. Remove from heat and cool 5 minutes.
Add eggs 1 at a time, beating well with wooden spoon after each addition. (Batter will appear to separate initially but will become smooth once beaten.) Add cheese and stir until combined well.
Spoon batter into pastry bag. Line a large baking sheet with a sheet of parchment paper, then secure parchment by piping a dab of batter under each corner. Pipe approximately 3-inch lengths of batter 1 inch apart on baking sheet, making about 40 total.
Bake until puffed, golden, and crisp, 20 to 25 minutes. Cool slightly before serving.

These cheese puffs are amazing! I can't believe how easy they were to make. I'll definitely be making them again.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my cheese puffs turned out flat and dense. I'm going to try again with a different recipe.

These cheese puffs are a great way to use up leftover Stilton cheese. They're also a fun and easy appetizer to make.

I've tried many cheese puff recipes, but this one is definitely my favorite. The cheese puffs are always light and fluffy, and they have the perfect amount of cheese.

These cheese puffs were a bit too salty for my taste. I think I'll use less salt next time.

I'm not a huge fan of Stilton cheese, but I still enjoyed these cheese puffs. They were savory and cheesy, with a nice crispy texture.

These cheese puffs are a little bit time-consuming to make, but they're worth the effort. They're so flavorful and satisfying.

I followed the recipe exactly and the cheese puffs turned out perfectly. They were light and airy, with a crispy outer shell and a gooey, cheesy center.
