Tips & Techniques

  • Special Touch

    Add a "thyme-ly" garnish with sprigs of fresh thyme, of course!

  • Do-Ahead

    Freeze baked puffs for up to 2 months. Thawing at room temperature for 30 minutes is all that's needed before cutting and filling.

  • How-To

    A spring-handled ice cream scoop works well for dropping dough onto the cookie sheet.

Ingredients

  • 1/2  cup water
  • 1/4  cup butter or margarine
  • 1/2  cup Gold Medal® all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2  teaspoons chopped fresh or 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme leaves
  • 2  eggs
  • 1 1/2  cups deli chicken salad

Directions

  1. 1Heat oven to 400°F. In 2-quart saucepan, heat water and butter to rolling boil. Stir in flour and thyme; reduce heat to low. Stir vigorously about 1 minute or until mixture forms a ball; remove from heat. Beat in eggs, one at a time, beating until smooth after each addition.
  2. 2On ungreased cookie sheet, drop dough by rounded measuring tablespoonfuls about 2 inches apart.
  3. 3Bake 25 to 30 minutes or until puffed and golden brown. Cool on cookie sheet away from draft, about 30 minutes.
  4. 4Cut off top one-third of each puff and pull out any filaments of soft dough. Fill each puff with 1 rounded tablespoon chicken salad.

Easy and delicious! This is now my go-to recipe, any time I am asked to bring appetizers. Make them the same day you plan to eat them. They don't keep well overnight.
