Homemade Cheddar Cheese Puffs are great for school lunches, after school snacks, or salad & soup toppers. They've got a crunch, but will melt in your mouth!
Mix together the cheese and softened butter. Blend well. Add the flour, cereal, salt and Tabasco sauce. Mix well. Pinch off 1/2 inch size pieces and roll them into balls. Place them on a lightly greased cookie sheet. Bake for 10-12 minutes.
Allow the cheese puffs to cool, then store them in an airtight container.
