    Seriously, did nobody read the recipe part? The list calls for 5 eggs, the instructions say to add 4 eggs one at a time. Is it 4 eggs, or 5?

      Seriously, did you read the entire recipe? The last (or 5th egg) is beaten with water and brushed on top. I have made them with chives instead of the parsley and "alternatively" dropped them on to the sheet by teaspoons (instead of piping them).

      These are called savory cheese puffs but it does not list how much and hat kind of cheese to use. Also it says Transfer mixture to a piping bag, and cut a 1/2-inch opening. Pipe 1-inch rounds onto baking sheets lined with parchment paper. Alternatively, drop rounded teaspoons of batter onto baking sheets lined with parchment. Why done to different ways. Do they go on top of each other? Sounds delishes but not clear at all.

      To the person who says they can't figure out if the recipe calls for 4 eggs or 5....if you read the recipe completely, you will see that you beat in 4 of the 5 eggs one at a time. The fifth egg is used with water to brush over the top before they go in the oven.

    I changed things around quite a bit. The beginning is the same but for real flavor I: kept the lemon but put in 2 teaspoons of basil paste and 1 clove of minced garlic. They're bursting with flavor. I also used freshly cracked mix peppercorn and it gives it a tad of a bit without being over bering since it was for a baby shower. Didn't want the cayenne to give her heartburn. I will certainly be using this again and again! A little puff of heaven, I tell you!
