Cheese profiteroles
Description
You can serve these profiteroles as a snack or use them as tartlets, for example. They can be filled with salad, caviar, or cream cheese. The most important thing is to follow the main rule for choux pastry: do not open the oven during baking. Otherwise, you shouldn't encounter any problems.
