Puffball mushroom species ID?
Given what you've said in the comments, and how much more common they are, I'm going with my first gut reaction of Lycoperdon perlatum.  The big give away for me was that you said there was a good taste.  L. Perlatum has a rich nutty flavor (my wife grows them), but Handkea excipuliformis (pestle puffballs) don't have much taste if any.  They are seriously notably bland.  H. excipuliformis can take on the flavor of what ever you cook them with, so if you cooked in a nut oil or with nuts, then you would have given the flavor that way.

Not that I support taste as a primary means of id...  In this case most of the puffballs are edible so you were in a low risk situation.  I just don't want to start a wave of fungus ID's that include taste info!
