Pao de Queijo


Brazilian cheese bread. These are my favorite. We never have leftovers! The best place to get tapioca startch is an asian market.

2 cups tapioca startch
1 cup milk
1/4 cup butter
1 tsp salt
1 1/2 cups Parmesan cheese
1 egg

Preheat oven to 325. Bring milk, butter and salt to a boil. Remove from heat. Slowly add flour--stirring constantly until mixed. Add cheese and egg. Knead until smooth. Form into small balls. (about the size a melon baller would make) Place on a baking sheet. Bake about 25 minutes or until golden. Serve hot.

Makes 70-80
