Hey Hivers, how was your last week?
I enjoyed my Sat with friends in a nice coffeeshop near #Hanoi West lake and baked something at home on Sunday!
Today let me share you what I baked! It is Cream puffs with cream and strawberry filling by using the most easy ingredients and just takes 30-45mins!
Before starting, let me remind you 2 rules when making this cream puff:
- Stick to the ingredients and measurements
- Don’t open the oven while it bakes
Now, let's start!
1. Ingredients
For choux pastry:
. 100ml water or (50ml fresh milk + 50ml water)
. A pinch of salt (2gram)
. 45gram unsalted butter
. 2 eggs
. 60gram all-purpose flour
For filling:
. 120ml whipping cream
. 20gram sugar
. Strawberry or any fruits or ice-cream or egg custard, chocolate sauce if you wanna change.
2. Prepared steps:
. Sifted the all-purpose flour well (1-2times)
. Pre-heat the oven in 200°C before baking 10mins
3. Tools:
. Mixing bowls
. Mixer
. Spatular
. Flour sifter
. Pot
. Piping bag
. Baking sheet
3. Make cream puffs:
3.1. Make choux pastry
Pour salt, water/milk, butter into the pot. Cook until the butter melted well then add the sifted flour.
Use spatula to mix flour and cooked mixture well. Cook with low heat until all become a ball of dough and there is a thin layer of dough on the bottom of the pot.
Slightly beat the eggs then mix it little by little to the dough until you get a smooth and thick choux.
Put your choux into the piping bag then cut its top to pipe choux on the baking sheet.
Use your finger to flatten the choux's top.
Bake in the oven in 200°C, 10-15mins.
3.2. Make the filling:
Mix whipping cream and sugar then use the mixer to beat it until you get a hard-chop mixture.
Fill the whipped cream into the choux.
You can make a hole under the choux or cut its top then fill the cream into.
Mix with fresh fruits if you want. I did with strawberry and seems their taste are really matched!
You also can use ice-cream, egg custard and chocolate sauce as filling and topping.
Now we have nice cream puffs with cream and straberry which can make everyone fall in love with.
