Hey Maria!
You're my Baking Gal!!!
Here's a great recipe for Cream Puffs:
Vanilla Cream Puffs
(In his Raleigh, North Carolina kitchen, Mike Kennon turns out batches of these yummy morsels! "The puffs are filled with a tasty almond-vanilla cream, and there's a hint of cinnamon in the chocolate glaze," he says.)
SERVINGS: 12
TIME: Prep: 40 min. + chilling Bake: 30 min. + cooling
Ingredients:
* 1 cup water
* 1/2 cup butter
* 1/4 teaspoon salt
* 1 cup all-purpose flour
* 4 eggs
* FILLING:
* 1-1/2 cups cold milk
* 1 package (5.1 ounces) instant vanilla pudding mix
* 1/2 to 1 teaspoon almond extract
* 2 cups heavy whipping cream, whipped
* CHOCOLATE GLAZE:
* 6 tablespoons semisweet chocolate chips
* 1-1/2 teaspoons shortening
* 3/4 teaspoon corn syrup
* 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Directions:
In a large saucepan, bring water, butter and salt to a boil. Add flour all at once and stir until a smooth ball forms. Remove from the heat; let stand for 5 minutes.
Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Continue beating until mixture is smooth and shiny.
Drop by 1/4 cupfuls 3 in. apart onto a greased baking sheet. Bake at 400° for 30-35 minutes or until golden brown. Remove to a wire rack. Immediately split puffs open; remove tops and set aside. Discard soft dough inside. Cool puffs.
In a mixing bowl, beat the milk, pudding mix and extract on low speed for 2 minutes. Let stand for 5 minutes. Fold in whipped cream. Fill cream puffs; replace tops.
In a heavy saucepan, combine glaze ingredients. Cook and stir over low heat until chocolate is melted and mixture is smooth. Drizzle over cream puffs. Chill for at least 1 hour before serving. Refrigerate leftovers. Yield: 1 dozen.
