# Olive Cheese Puffs (ca 1950)

recipe from the 50s

## Ingredients

* 1c grated cheddar
* 3 Tbsp soft butter
* 24-48 pimento-stuffed olives
* 1/2 c flour
* 1/4 tsp salt
* 1/2 tsp paprika

## Steps

* Blend 1 cup grated cheddar with 3 tablespoons soft butter.
* Stir in 1/2 cup flour, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon paprika. Note: Will be very dry and crumbly.
* Thoroughly dry 24-48 pimento stuffed olives (depending on size).
* Wrap approximately 1 teaspoon cheese dough around each olive, covering completely.
* Put crumbly dough in palm of hand and mash with your thumb - it will cohere with body heat. Then wrap around olive.

This takes longer to do than you might think.
