Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

In a saucepan over medium heat, combine milk, butter, and a pinch of salt. Stir until it simmers and the butter melts, about 3 minutes.

Add all-purpose flour to the saucepan and stir vigorously until a cohesive dough forms, about 2-3 minutes.

Let the dough cool for 5 minutes, then add the eggs one at a time, mixing until thick and glossy.

Fold in the grated cheese and adjust seasoning with salt and optional spices.

Drop tablespoon-sized portions onto the baking sheet, spacing them 1.5 inches apart.

Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown and crisp on the outside.

Let cool slightly before serving warm.
