These have been a favourite of mine since childhood. You can make them with straight whipped cream or combine custard and whip cream in this indulgent version.<\/span><\/p>\n

Learning to make choux pastry is one of my earliest memories of baking in my parent\u2019s kitchen. I remember the feeling of accomplishment watching the little mounds of batter rise through the oven door. It was magic!<\/span><\/p>\n

Choux pastry is not that hard to make at all and once you do master it quickly, you have the base to make so many more delicious sweet and savoury treats.<\/span><\/p>\n

Choux pastry gets used if in many things around here, from Chocolate Mousse Eclairs<\/strong><\/a><\/span> to Garlic Thyme Cheese Puffs<\/strong><\/a><\/span>! I love the versatility it has to go from desserts to hors d\u2019oeuvres with ease.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Dark\"Dark<\/p>\n

I like to use 50% dark chocolate chips for the ganache glaze but you can use semisweet as well.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

NOTE: if using straight whipped cream in your cream puffs I recommended adding 1\/2 tsp vanilla extract and a heaping tablespoon of icing sugar (powdered sugar) per 8 ounces of whipping cream before you whip it to firm peaks. <\/span><\/p>\n

This will add flavour and sweetness and the cornstarch in the powdered sugar stabilizes the whipped cream so it does not deflate.<\/span><\/p>\n
