Boil a few a time in about 3 quarts of salted water. Drain and fry in a lightly greased pan for a few minutes until lightly browned.
Put your chicken pieces in a roaster and bake in the oven until cooked and browned. Add the cheese buttons.

Cut up one onion. You may add the chicken hearts or livers to the gravy if you desire. Fry this in butter until done. Add 3 Tbls. flour, a quart of milk, and a pint of half and half cream.
Serve the gravy over the chicken and the cheese buttons. Return to oven to reheat if needed.
