Instructions
- Make the choux pastry dough.
- Transfer the dough to a piping back with a 1A or similar baking tip.
- Squeeze about 4 tablespoons of the dough while slowly lifting up onto a sheet tray lined with parchment paper.
- Bake in the oven on a middle rack at 400° for 30 to 35 minutes or until browned and firm outside.
- Set the cream puffs aside to cool to room temperature.
- Slice the cream puffs in half, leaving a thinner bottom and a bigger top piece.
- Place the bottom slices on a sheet tray with parchment paper and add 1/3 to ½ cup of cream filling. You can use a scooper or a piping bag with a 357-baking tip or a similar decorative dip.
- Place the top slices onto the filling of the cream puffs. In addition, you can add the cream puffs to the refrigerator and serve chilled.
- Garnish with powdered sugar.
- You can eat these immediately, or you can freeze them all and eat frozen.
Notes
- Make-Ahead: You can make the cream puffs up to 2 days ahead of time as long as they are separated from the cream filling.
- How to Store: Keep the cream puffs separate from the cream filling in the refrigerator and cover it for up to 5 days. The cream puffs will freeze well covered for up to 3 months. It’s best to eat them frozen once you freeze them.
- Other filling options are flavored whipped cream with fresh berries, pastry cream, crème diplomat, crème mousseline, and Italian custard; the possibilities are endless.
- You should be able to get about 9 to 12 cream puffs per baking sheet.
- You can also drizzle a little honey over the top of the cream puffs.
