Chili Egg Puff

This one is a treasure for sure! Everyone who makes it loves it! Nothing like a little spice in the morning! This recipe hails from Living Water Retreat Center in Cornville, Arizona. It was on one of their recipe cards in the cafeteria. My in-laws used to run the place in the 80's, and this is my husband's Mema's special recipe! Enjoy!
