Cream Puffs

These homemade cream puffs are made with a light choux pastry that puffs up when baked. In this version, they are filled with a rich vanilla cream that's easy to make with instant pudding. Drizzle melted chocolate on top for a fancy dessert that will wow your guests!

How to Make It

  1. Mix together vanilla instan
  2. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).

  3. In a large pot, bring water and butter to a rolling boil.

  4. Stir in flour and salt until the mixture forms a ball.

  5. Transfer the dough to a large mixing bowl. Using a wooden spoon or stand mixer, beat in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each.

  6. Drop by tablespoonfuls onto an ungreased baking sheet, spacing them a couple of inches apart.

  7. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes in the preheated oven, until golden brown. Centers should be dry.

  8. When the shells are cool, either split and fill them with the pudding mixture, or use a pastry bag to pipe the pudding into the shells.
