Pão de Queijo (Cheese Bread- Gluten Free)

A few years ago I spent some months in Brazil while doing my internship, while there I discovered these little fluffy-gooey-clouds-of-heaven. I used to eat them almost daily, with coffee (pão de queijo e café docinho) it is a staple in the Brazilian-snacking. Think of the British "tea time"... Well, the Brazilian have their own version and I can't tell you enough how good these are.

 They are definitely my favorite type of bread, very comforting and the best part is guilt-free. I have tweaked the original recipe to make it my own. Adding a bit of Dutch cheese (highly available) instead of mozzarella and some herbs, substituted the whole milk for sour cream. I like the mixture to be really runny, it makes for the fluffiest bread, so I pour them into cupcake trays instead of making little balls.

 This recipe yields 16 little puffy goodness.
