          Instructions<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

          1. Make the Choux Pastry<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
            \n
          1. Preheat oven to\u00a0400\u00b0F (200\u00b0C)<\/strong>. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          2. In a saucepan over medium heat, combine water, butter, sugar, and salt. Bring to a boil.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          3. Once boiling, add flour all at once. Stir vigorously with a wooden spoon until a ball of dough forms and pulls away from the sides (1\u20132 minutes).<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          4. Remove from heat. Let cool for 5 minutes.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          5. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. The dough should be smooth and pipeable.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          6. Transfer the dough to a piping bag fitted with a round tip (or use a spoon).<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          7. Pipe or spoon 1\u00bd-inch mounds onto the baking sheet, spacing them 2 inches apart.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          8. Bake for\u00a020\u201325 minutes<\/strong>, or until puffed and golden brown. Do not open the oven during baking.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          9. Turn off the oven, crack the door open, and let the puffs sit for 10 minutes to dry out.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          10. Remove from oven and cool completely on a wire rack.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
            \n\n\n\n

            2. Prepare the Filling<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

            Whipped Cream Filling:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
              \n
            • Whip cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla until stiff peaks form. Keep chilled.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

              Pastry Cream Filling:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
                \n
              1. In a saucepan, heat milk over medium heat until steaming.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
              2. In a bowl, whisk sugar, cornstarch, and egg yolks until smooth.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
              3. Slowly whisk hot milk into the egg mixture to temper it.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
              4. Return mixture to the saucepan and cook over medium heat, whisking constantly, until thickened (about 3\u20135 minutes).<\/li>\n\n\n\n
              5. Remove from heat, stir in butter and vanilla.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
              6. Let cool, then chill before using.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
                \n\n\n\n

                3. Fill the Cream Puffs<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
                  \n
                1. Once shells are cooled, slice them in half horizontally or poke a hole in the bottom.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
                2. Fill with whipped cream or pastry cream using a spoon or piping bag.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
                3. Replace tops and dust with powdered sugar, or drizzle with chocolate glaze.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
                  \n\n\n\n

                  Storage Tips<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
                    \n
                  • Unfilled shells can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for 1\u20132 days or frozen.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
                  • Filled cream puffs should be refrigerated and are best eaten within 1 day.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
