Nun's Puffs

Do you know what Nun's Puffs are? Take a look:

And they go amazingly well with this:

This is my favorite hot chocolate. I have a mug almost every day...and sometimes twice a day. You can only get it at Harmon's in Utah and it's pretty hard to find in other states as well.

Jon and I ate these for breakfast this morning. They're really good when you put some honey on them.

Here's the recipe:

1/2 cup butter
1 cup milk
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
4 eggs
1 tablespoon sugar
Cinnamon-sugar or honey, optional

Generously grease twelve 2-1/2-inch muffin cups (use the giant muffin cups with 6 to a pan), covering the edge and around the top of each cup. In a 2-quart saucepan melt the butter. Add milk; bring to boiling. Add flour all at once; stir vigorously. Cook and stir until mixture forms a ball that does not separate. Remove from the heat; cool slightly, about 5 minutes.

Add the eggs, 1 at a time, beating with a wooden sppon after each addition for 1 minute or until smooth. Fill the prepared muffin cups half full of dough; sprinkle with the sugar.

Bake puffs in a 375 degree oven about 30 minutes or until golden brown and puffy. Remove from pan and serve immediately.
