65g/2 ½ oz flour |

Pinch of salt |

50g/2oz butter |

2 eggs, beaten |

75g/3oz full fat soft cheese |

METHOD:

|
Sift together the flour and salt. Put
150ml/¼ pint water, and butter into a saucepan. Heat slowly until
the butter melts then bring to a brisk boil. |
|
Add the flour all at once, stirring
quickly until the mixture forms a soft ball and leaves the sides of
the pan clean. Cool slightly. |
|
Gradually add the eggs, beating them in
until the mixture is smooth, shiny and firm enough to stand in soft
peaks. Place twenty equal amounts on to a dampened and lightly
floured baking sheet. |
|
Bake in the oven at 200°C/400°F/gas mark
6 for 20 minutes. Cool. |
|
Beat together the full fat soft cheese,
Stilton and milk, stir in the nuts. |
|
Cut the puffs in half and fill the
bottom half with cheese mixture. Replace tops and serve immediately.

These can also be used for indulgent
finger food, or with drinks before a meal. |
