Ingredients (10)

Step 1
Preheat oven to 425°F. Line 2 rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
Step 2
Place the milk, water, butter, salt and seasoning mix in a pot and place over high heat. Bring to a boil. Add flour and stir vigorously with a wooden spoon until batter comes together and starts to pull away from the sides of the pan, about 4–5 minutes.
Step 3
Transfer dough to stand mixer that is equipped with paddle attachment (or you can use an electric hand mixer with a large bowl). Allow dough to rest and cool slightly for 2 minutes. With the mixer running on medium speed, add eggs, one at a time. Add cheese and mix to combine. Add as much bacon as desired, and chives, and stir together with a spoon.
Step 4
Using a small cookie scoop (approximately 1 tablespoon), scoop batter onto the prepared baking sheets approximately 2 inches apart. Bake for 10 minutes. Reduce heat to 375°F, rotate baking sheets and continue baking for approximately 15–20 minutes or until golden. Transfer gougeres to a baking rack and cool slightly.
Step 5
Serve with additional ranch dressing for dipping.
