Rye Party Puffs Recipe
Ingredients:
- Dough
- 1 cup water
- 1/2 cup butter or margarine
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup rye flour
- 2 teaspoons dried parsley flakes
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 4 eggs
- Caraway seeds
- Corned Beef Filling
- 16 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 2 (2 1/2 ounce) packages thinly sliced
- cooked corned beef, chopped
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 1/4 cup sour cream
- 2 tablespoons minced chives
- 2 tablespoons diced onion
- 1 teaspoon spicy brown mustard
- 1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
- 10 small stuffed olives, chopped
Directions:
- In a saucepan over medium heat, bring water and butter to a boil. Add flours, parsley, garlic powder and salt all at once; stir until a smooth ball forms. Remove from the heat; let stand for 5 minutes.
- Beat in eggs, one at time. Beat until smooth. Drop batter by rounded teaspoons 2-in. apart onto greased baking sheets. Sprinkle with caraway. Bake at 400 degrees F for 18-20 minutes or until golden.
- Remove to wire racks. Immediately cut a slit in each puff to allow steam to escape; cool. In a mixing bowl, combine the first eight filling ingredients; mix well. Stir in olives. Split puffs; add filling. Refrigerate.
- Yield: 4 1/2 dozen.
- NOTE: These puffs might sounds like a lot of work but, they are fabulous and great for party if they last that long. The corned beef filling makes enough for fill two batches of the dough puffs. I use a pastry bag less sticky with dough to make puffs.
