Basil Parmesan Puffs

• 3/4 cup water
• 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, cubed
• 3/4 teaspoon salt
• 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
• 4 eggs
• 1 cup fresh basil, minced (I used about 1 1/2 T dried)
• 1 cup grated parmesan cheese (I used the stuff in the can)

1. In a large saucepan, bring water, butter, and salt to a boil. Add flour all at once and stir until it forms a smooth ball. Remove from heat and let stand for about 5 minutes.
2. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Continue beating until mixture is smooth and shiny (takes some arm power). Stir in basil and cheese.
3. Drop by rounded tablespoons 1 inch apart onto greased baking sheets. Bake at 400' for 18-20 minutes or until golden brown. (I made mine too big and it took about 24 minutes total) Remove to wire racks. Serve warm.
