These cheesy puffs take about 10 minutes to throw together and there is not a cheese-loving kid on the planet who can resist these. I have even made these successfully when I was out of eggs by substituting one tablespoon of chia seeds, soaked in twice the amount of water, till they expand - a foolproof vegan egg substitute if you ever need one.
