- 01Preheat your oven to 400 deg F (200 deg C).

- 03Remove from heat and stir in the flour vigorously with a wooden spoon until a smooth ball of dough forms that pulls away from the sides of the pan.
- 04Let it cool for two minutes.
- 05Gradually beat in the egg, a little at a time, until the dough is glossy and holds a 'V' shape when lifted from the spoon.
- 06Fold in the finely grated Gruyère and minced chives.
- 07Drop small, teaspoon-sized mounds onto a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- 08Bake for 15-18 minutes until they have puffed up and are golden brown and crisp to the touch.
