Surprise Cheese Puffs
appetizers
1/2 cup butter
2 cup grated sharp cheese
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon paprika
1 dash cayenne or red pepper
1 cup sifted flour
50 small stuffed green olives.
Allow butter to soften; blend with cheese, salt, paprika and cayenne. Stir in flour, mixing well. Mold 1 tsp of this mixture around each olive, covering it completely. Arrange on a baking sheet and chill until firm. Bake in 400 oven for 15 minutes. Serve hot. Makes 50 puffs.
**NOTE** These puffs are so easy to serve at parties as they may be made in advance, frozen on a baking sheet to keep round and stored in a plastic bag in the freezer. Bake as needed.
