tweaked my Mom’s Famous Cream Puffs recipe to make it even better. I would never have imagined it was possible, but once again, I was mistaken! Cream puffs are a puffy and creamy dessert that is almost too sweet. This dough is identical to the one used in our Eclair recipe. When you need a quick and relatively simple recipe that will feed a crowd, this is the recipe to use. I was able to make 16 cream puffs with this recipe. Ingredients:1 stick butter (8 Tablespoons)1 cup water1 tsp vanilla4 eggs1c flourMOM’S FAMOUS FILLING:1 pint heavy cream1 package (3.4 OUNCES) instant vanilla pudding⅓ cup milkHow To Make MOM’S FAMOUS CREAM PUFFS:Bring the butter, water and vanilla to a boil.Add the flour and stir constantly until it leaves the side of the pot and forms a ball.Remove and cool.Beat in 4 eggs, one at a time until smooth.Drop by T. onto parchment lined cookie sheetsBake at 400 degrees for about 25-30 minutes.LET COOL.Slice in half and pipe or scoop in Mom’s filling.Dust with powdered sugar.Filling:Beat the cream, pudding powder and milk in a mixer until thick like whipped cream!
