Adopted in the Great RecipeZaar Adoption of 2005. Hope to make and update soon. Original poster's comments: Cream puffs are not really all that hard to make. I've never had this recipe not turn out. You can fill with whipped cream, pastry cream, pudding, etc. Ingredients:
1/2 cup butter or 1/2 cup margarine |
1 cup water |
1/8 teaspoon salt |
1 cup flour |
4 eggs |
1 cup whipping cream, whipped |
icing sugar |
Directions:
1. In a medium saucepan combine margarine, water and salt.
2. Bring to a boil.
3. Add flour all at once, stirring vigorously.
4. Cook and stir till mixture forms a ball that doesn't separate.
5. Remove from heat.
6. Cool 10 minutes.
7. Add eggs, one at a time, beating with a wooden spoon after each addition until smooth.
8. Drop batter by heaping tablespoons, 3 inches apart, onto a greased cookie sheet.
9. Bake at 400 F for 30-35 minutes, or until golden.
10. Cool on a wire rack.
11. Slice puffs in half and remove any soft dough inside.
12. Fill with whipped cream.
13. Replace tops.
