Photo: Cheesy Corn Puffs Recipe
Ingredients
- 1 cup canned cream-style corn
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 3 large eggs
- 1/2 cup shredded pepper jack cheese, plus more for topping
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives
Directions
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Bring the corn, butter and salt to a simmer in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Reduce the heat to low, add the flour and stir with a wooden spoon until the mixture is smooth and begins to pull away from the sides of the pan, about 2 minutes.
Scrape the dough into a bowl; let cool slightly. Add the eggs one at a time, stirring well between each addition. Stir in the cheese and chives. Chill the dough 15 minutes.
Scoop tablespoon-size mounds of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, about 2 inches apart. Sprinkle with more cheese. Transfer to the oven and bake until golden brown and puffy, 20 to 25 minutes. Serve warm.

I loved this recipe and would definitely make these again. I didn't have any problem with a runny batter. I made this recipe directly out of the magazine. Is it possible that the web recipe and the magazine recipe were a little bit different? I also agree with an earlier reviewer about the brand of creamed corn. I used Santium brand purchased at Fred Meyer (Kroger. It was very thick. I would also add some heat to this recipe when I make it again. I like things spicy!

Wow, you know , I read the terrible reviews and was like ,,,these people probably just aren't following the recipe right, as I am an avid cook and really really wanted this recipe to work for me, Definite fail! This recipe does not work , I think all the 5 star posts must be from food network employees paid to rate and give good reviews , this recipe should come off the site , Like all the other bad reviews , the batter was runny and made flat little cheese cookies, luckily I added some red peppers and chives to them so they were at least very tasty cheese corn cookies but definitely not puffs as the recipe suggests. oh and I signed up just to review this recipe because I was so disappointed with it .

argh, wish i had read the reviews, would not have even bothered. my concerns began almost immediately when i added the flour to the hot corn mixture...it just formed a stiff ball, and didn't pull away from the sides of the pan as described in the recipe or as in a normal gougeres recipe. the eggs did not incorporate at all, so used a hand mixer... i considered cutting my losses at this point, but went ahead and chilled the dough and proceeded. the result were heavy, ugly blobs which became less and less forgiving the cooler they became. blech! i'm a pretty experienced home cook, so i'm blaming the recipe-not myself!
