Directions:
- Preheat oven to 425*.
- Grease 2 baking sheets.
- To make dough: In a heavy 2 qt.
- Saucepan, combine 1 cup water with butter, salt, pepper,and nutmeg.
- When butter has melted and water is boiling, remove pan from heat andd beat in flour all at once with a wooden spoon.
- Stir vigorously until the mixture forms a ball and leaves sides of pan.
- (If it doesn't, return pan to heat and beat hard 1 to 2 mins., until it forms a ball).
- Off of the heat, beat in 4 eggs, 1 at a time until each is thoroughly incorporated.
- Beat in 1 cup of grated cheese.
- Transfer the dough to a pastry bag fitted with a plain 1/2 tip.
- Pipe rounds on the prepared baking sheets, each about 1 inch in diameter, 1 high, and 2 apart.
- With a pastry brush, very carefully brush the tops of the rounds with some of the egg wash, being sure not to let any drip onto the baking sheets.
- (It will act like glue and prevent puffs from puffing).
- Sprinkle the remaining cheese over the tops of the rounds.
- Bake for 20 to 25 mins.
- Or until golden and crisp.
- Remove from the oven and turn off the oven.
- With the tip of a small, sharp knife, pierce the top side of each puff, then return the baking sheets to the oven to dry for 10 mins.
- Remove and let cool on wire racks.
- While the puffs are baking or as they cool, make the filling: Drain the salsa.
- In a bowl combine the cream cheese with half of the drained salsa.
- Add salsa to taste.
- With a small sharp knife, cut off the top half of the puffs.
- Spoon filling into each puff and place the tops of the puffs back on.
