Chipas are basically baked cheese buns and are very popular in
Argentina. These buns are made with cassava (tapioca) flour. This
flour, also known also as manioc or tapioca starch, is very light can
be found in health food stores or Hispanic markets. Traditional
chipas are made only with cheese, but different varieties can have
ham or other cold meats in the filling. You can use Parmesan cheese
by itself or a combination of hard and semi-hard cheeses, such as
Manchego, Swiss or various Latin American cheeses. Whatever you use,
you'll end up with an exquisite little bun.

Preheat the oven to 375F.
Combine the cassava flour, baking powder, and salt, mixing well.
Mix in the cheeses and the butter. Add the eggs and blend until dough
has formed.
Add 8 teaspoons of milk and mix well. The dough should be compact and
lightly moist; if needed, add one or two more teaspoons of milk.
Form 1 1/2" balls and place them on a greased baking tray, leaving a
couple of inches between them.
Bake for 15 to 16 minutes or until the chipas are slightly browned.
Expert Tips: To save time, buy grated Parmesan cheese.
For a stronger flavor, use half Parmesan and half Manchego cheese.
