⭐ FAMOUS CREAM PUFFS – Light, Fluffy, Irresistible ✨
👩🍳 Instructions:
🔥 Make the Pastry:
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a saucepan, combine water, butter, and salt. Bring to a boil.
Reduce heat, add flour all at once, and stir vigorously until the mixture forms a ball and pulls away from the sides.
Remove from heat and let it cool just slightly.
Beat in eggs one at a time, mixing well after each (use a hand mixer or elbow grease 💪). It should be smooth, glossy, and thick.
Drop by heaping tablespoons onto the baking sheet.
Bake for 25–30 minutes or until puffed and golden.
Let cool completely before filling (very important!).
🍦 Make the Cream Filling:
In a bowl, whisk together heavy cream, pudding mix, milk, and vanilla.
Beat until thick and fluffy.
Chill in the fridge for at least 1 hour.
🧁 Assemble:
Slice cream puffs in half.
Spoon or pipe the chilled filling into the bottom half.
Top with the other half and dust with powdered sugar like a snow flurry ❄️
💡 Ashley’s Tips:
You can make mini ones for parties — just pipe smaller rounds!
Add a drizzle of chocolate or caramel for an extra WOW 🍫
Make ahead and fill just before serving for max freshness 🌟
