MAKE THEM NOW
– 1 cup water – 5 1/3 tbsp butter – 1 tbsp sugar – 1/8 tsp salt – 1 cup all purpose flour – 4 eggs – 1 cup heavy whipping cream – 1/4 cup powdered sugar more or less to taste
– Preheat oven to 450°F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone liners.
NEXT STEP
– In a medium saucepan, bring the water, butter, sugar, and salt to a simmer over medium heat. Once a simmer is reached, remove from heat, and stir in flour all at once until the mixture forms a ball. Let stand five minutes.
NEXT STEP
– By hand, or using a hand mixer, add the eggs one at a time, mixing well between each addition. Mix until the dough is smooth and shiny.
NEXT STEP
– Using a pastry bag and a large tip (or just a ziploc bag with a hole cut in the corner) pipe small rounds of dough onto the baking sheets, spacing about one inch apart. Use your finger to press down the little peaks at the top of the dough, so the puffs are smooth.
NEXT STEP
– Bake at 450°F for 10 minutes, then lower the temperature to 350°F for 15 minutes. The puffs are done when they are lightly browned and the insides are hollow. Let the puffs cool completely.
NEXT STEP
– While the puffs cool, beat the whipping cream in the bowl of a stand mixer (or use a hand mixer or wire whisk). Once the cream is whipped to desired level of firmness, beat in the powdered sugar, a little at a time, until it is as sweet as you would like.
NEXT STEP
– Split each cream puff in half using a serrated knife, and place a scoop of whipped cream onto the bottom half of the puff. Top with the other half and dust with powdered sugar. Bon appetite!
