Preparation

• Melt the butter and water in a saucepan and continue until it comes to a boil. Stir in the 1 cup of flour.
• Remove from heat and mix in the sugar. Allow to cool slightly. Temper the eggs and little by little add the eggs into the hot flour mixture.
• Stir constantly so the eggs do not cook! Once all the eggs are incorporated and a homogenous mixture is formed, drop by tablespoon full onto a greased cookie sheet.
• Bake for 20 minutes at 350 degrees. Remove from oven and split each puff open while still hot, return to an off oven for a couple of minutes to dry the center out. Allow to cool completely.
• Combine butter, cream cheese, parsley and chives in a food processor and "blend" until green. Salt and pepper to desired taste.
• Spread and even layer on 1- slices of bread and cover with the remaining slices. Cut off crusts and cut into fancy triangles. Makes about 32-36 triangles.
