Cheddar Cheese Puffs

Light and fluffy with a deep cheddar flavor throughout, I have a feeling these cheddar cheese puffs will be finding their way onto my Super Bowl menu too! Somewhere between a soft cracker and a tiny scone, each one of these Cheddar Cheese Puffs is coated with your choice of either sesame or poppy seeds although they are equally delicious naked, without seeds.
