Choux Easy! No-Fail Choux Pastry
Use for making creme puffs
Ingredients
  • Cream Puffs are my dad's favorite dessert, so over the years my mom has perfected the art of making choux pastry.  She can tell when they are done just by how they smell while baking (an art that I hope to master someday- I think maybe women get that when you get the all-moms-have-eyes-on-the-back-of-their-head skill and other womanly superhero tricks).  Someday...
  • In the meantime, you can use my tips below to make the perfect pastry!  No fussing, no fancy tools, no crying.  I promise you'll like making them and we will all be friends when it's over!
  • Time: about 1 hour total, baking time included
  • YOU WILL NEED
  • 1 stick unsalted butter (113g.)
  • 1 cup flour (128g.)
  • 1 cup water (236ml.)
  • 4 eggs
  • Let the mixture cool enough to put it into a pastry bag or a plastic baggie with the tip cut off and pipe onto a baking sheet.  You can use fancy tips, make fancy shapes, big or small.  Bake at 350'F- the length of time will vary depending on the size of the pastries and the actual temperature of your oven, which can vary greatly.
