I was browsing around on the internet and found this recipe. I have not tried it, yet. I thought they would be good for a brunch.


Chile Rellenos Puffs
41st Pillsbury Bake-Off® Contest, 2004

1 1/2 cups water
1/2 cup butter
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup cornmeal
1 teaspoon salt
6 eggs, beaten
3/4 cup (3 ounces) shredded Monterey Jack cheese
3/4 cup (3 ounces) shredded Cheddar cheese
2 4.5-ounce cans Old El Paso Chopped Green Chiles, drained

Heat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Spray 24 regular-size muffin cups with cooking spray. In 3-quart saucepan, heat water and butter over high heat to a full rolling boil. Remove from heat.

Stir in flour, cornmeal and salt until mixture forms a dough and all lumps have disappeared. Gradaully stir in beaten eggs until well blended. Stir in both cheeses and the chiles. Spoon dough evenly into sprayed muffin cups, filling each 3/4 full.

Bake for 25 to 29 minutes or until golden brown. Cool 2 minutes; remove from muffin cups. Serve warm.

Note: If 2 (12-cup) muffin pans are unavailable, spoon dough into pan; refrigerate remaining dough while baking first pan. Spoon refrigerated dough into pan; bake 28 to 35 minutes.

Was this the winner? This looks awesome SierraCook. I'm going to try this very soon. Thanks!
 
Thanks for the link Sierra. That pie is making my mouth water!
 
I made these for Super Bowl. I baked them in a mini muffin pan at the same temperature for 15 minutes. They worked great as appetizers. Everyone loved them. I think next time for a little zing I may substitute diced jalapenos for the green chiles.
