Ingredients

• 1 cup milk
• 1/4 cup butter
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 4 large eggs
• 1 cup Sargento Fine Shredded Sharp or Mild Cheddar Cheese
• 8 slices bacon, cooked crisp, crumbled
• 1/2 teaspoons onion salt
• 1/4 teaspoon garlic salt
• 1/4 teaspoon pepper

Preparation

Step 1

Combine milk and butter in medium saucepan. Heat over medium heat until butter is melted and mixture is simmering. Add flour all at once; continue to cook, stirring vigorously with a wooden spoon, until mixture forms a ball. Remove from heat.

Beat in 1 egg until mixture is smooth. Repeat with remaining eggs, adding just 1 egg at a time, beating until thoroughly combined. Stir in remaining ingredients.

Drop heaping teaspoons of mixture onto greased baking sheet. Bake in preheated 350°F oven 25 minutes or until puffed and golden brown. Serve warm or at room temperature.
