Italian Cheese Puffs

1 cup water
1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup plus 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
1/2 cup Italian seasoned bread crumbs
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
3 eggs
6 ounces shredded mozzarella cheese
1 1/2 cups freshly grated parmesean cheese

Preheat the oven to 375F. Place the water and butter in a medium-size
saucepan and bring to a boil over medium heat.

Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the flour, bread crumbs, salt, and
pepper. Cook over low heat, stirring for 1 minute. Transfer the mixture
to a medium-size bowl. Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after
each addition. Beat in the mozzarella cheese.

Drop the mixture by teaspoons full on an ungreased baking sheet. Sprinkle
with the parmesean cheese. Bake until puffed and golden brown, about 15
minutes.
