Ingredients:

****ermilk-ranch, Bacon and Cheddar Gougeres aka Cheese Puffs

I wanted to make something high-end out of bacon-cheddar-ranch. So I thought - GOUGERES! also known as Cheese Puffs. Upscale snack food. Gougeres are made from pate-a-choux, they're basically savory cream puffs. Crispy on the outside, and hollow and creamy on the inside. And boy oh boy were these good.

Ingredients:

3/4 cup ****ermilk
5 TB ****er
1 cup flour
3 eggs
2 strips bacon, diced
1 cup cheddar, shredded
1/2 tsp fresh thyme, minced
1 tsp fresh basil, minced
1/2 tsp ****ermilk dressing base powder
salt and fresh ground pepper

Preheat oven to 425.
