Ingredients

• 120 grams Unsalted butter
• 250 milliliters Water
• 150 grams All-purpose flour
• 4 large Eggs
• 100 grams Cheddar cheese
• 200 grams Granulated sugar
• 120 milliliters Heavy cream
• 1 teaspoon Salt

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a medium saucepan, combine butter, water, and salt. Bring to a boil over medium heat until the butter is melted.

Step 3

Reduce the heat to low, add the flour all at once, and stir vigorously with a wooden spoon until the mixture forms a smooth dough and pulls away from the sides of the pan.

Step 4

Remove the saucepan from heat and let the dough cool for 5 minutes.

Step 5

Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition until the dough becomes smooth and glossy.

Step 6

Grate the cheddar cheese and fold it into the dough mixture.

Step 7

Using a piping bag or spoon, drop tablespoon-sized mounds of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 20–25 minutes, or until the cheese puffs are golden brown and crisp. Allow them to cool slightly on a wire rack.

Step 9

While the puffs cool, prepare the toffee sauce. In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the granulated sugar and heavy cream, stirring until the sugar dissolves.

Step 10

Increase the heat to medium-high and cook the toffee mixture, stirring occasionally, for 5–7 minutes until it thickens and turns a rich amber color.

Step 11

Drizzle the warm toffee sauce over the cheese puffs and serve immediately. Enjoy the irresistible combination of sweet and savory flavors!
