OLIVE PUFFS

Steps:

• Cream all the ingredients except olives, knead to form a dough. Wrap around the olives individually. At this point you can place them on a cookie sheet and freeze then put them in a gallon sized bag for later, or refrigerate for at least one hour.
• Bake at 400 degrees for 16-18 mn. if refrigerated, if frozen 20-23 mn. No need to thaw.

CHEESE-OLIVE PUFFS

Steps:

• Blend together flour, cheese, paparika and butter. This will make a very stiff dough. Take a small amount (about the same size at the thumb to first joint) and cover an olive. It should be about 1/16th of an inch thick and no part of the olive should be showing. *The amount of cheese mixture used will depend on the size of the olive.* If you are using small olives, use less. Place olives on cookie sheet about 1" apart. *If freezing, freeze on cookie sheet and then transfer to freezer bag.* Chill until ready to use. Bake at 400 10 - 12 minutes. If frozen bake at 425 about 15 minutes. They will puff a bit and not taste doughy. If using large olives you will need to cook a few more minutes. Two batches will make about 3/4 of a gallon freezer bag.
