CHEESE PUFFS
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a saucepan, heat the milk, butter, salt, pepper, and nutmeg over medium heat, until scalded. Add the flour all at once and beat it vigorously with a wooden spoon until the mixture comes together. Cook, stirring constantly, over low heat for 2 minutes. The flour will begin to coat the bottom of the pan. Dump the hot mixture into the bowl of a food processor fitted with the steel blade. Immediately add the eggs, Gruyere, and Parmesan and pulse until the eggs are incorporated and the dough is smooth and thick.
- Spoon the mixture into a pastry bag fitted with a large plain round tip. Pipe in mounds 1 1/4 inches wide and 3/4-inch high onto the baking sheets. With a wet finger, lightly press down the swirl at the top of each puff. (You can also use 2 spoons to scoop out the mixture and shape the puffs with damp fingers.) Brush the top of each puff lightly with egg wash and sprinkle with a pinch of Gruyere. Bake for 15 minutes, or until golden brown outside but still soft inside.

Tips:
- Use a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment to make the dough. This will help to ensure that the dough is evenly mixed and smooth.
- Be careful not to overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the dough tough.
- Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before rolling it out. This will help to make the dough easier to work with.
- Roll the dough out to a thickness of about 1/8 inch. If the dough is too thick, the cheese puffs will be dense and heavy.
- Use a sharp knife or pizza cutter to cut the dough into 1-inch squares.
- Place the cheese puffs on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Bake the cheese puffs at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 10-12 minutes, or until they are golden brown.
- Serve the cheese puffs immediately.

Spicy garlic cheese puffs are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer that is perfect for any party or gathering. They are made with a simple dough that is filled with a mixture of cheese, garlic, and spices. The cheese puffs are then baked until they are golden brown and crispy.
