    Cheese: Mozzarella Puffs with Marinara Sauce

    Source of Recipe

    Vegetarian Fast and Fancy

    List of Ingredients

    1 cup milk
    1/4 cup butter
    1 cup flour
    4 eggs
    1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
    1/4 cup chopped chives
    1 tablespoon chopped parsley
    1 pinch salt
    8 ounces grated mozzarella cheese

    Recipe

    In a saucepan, bring milk and butter to a boil. Add the flour, all at once, and cook, stirring, until dough forms a ball and leaves the side of the pan, about 2 minutes. Place dough in the large bowl of an electric mixer and beat in eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in parmesan, chives, parsley and salt until blended. Drop batter by tablespoonfuls onto a greased non-stick baking sheet and bake at 350�F until puffed and golden brown. Time will depend on size of the puffs. Can be held at this point.

    Before serving, place puffs on a cookie sheet and split in half. Place a little of the mozzarella cheese in the center and reset the tops. Heat in a 350�F oven until heated through and cheese is melted. Serve warm with Marinara Sauce, on the side, for dipping.



    Marinara Sauce:
    1 can (1 lb. 12 ounces) crushed tomatoes in tomato puree
    1 teaspoon sugar
    1 tablespoon oil
    2 tablespoon instant onion flakes
    1 1/2 teaspoon Italian herb seasoning
    1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
    small pinch of cayenne pepper
    salt and pepper to taste

    Combine all the ingredients and simmer sauce for 10 minutes.
