Cooking Instructions

45 mins
  1. 1

    PASTRY: Heat water, salt and butter to a rolling boil; reduce heat. Tip in the flour and stir vigorously over low heat until mixture forms into a ball, about 1 minute.

    Remove from heat. Add in the eggs, one at a time, while beating until dough mixture is smooth.

  3. 3

    Heat oven to 400°F Fahrenheit.

  4. 4

    Use rounded teaspoonfuls (to tablespoonfuls, depending on the size you like) or use a piping bag to make mounds of dough set about 2 inches apart on an untreated cookie sheet.

  5. 5

    Bake puffs until they are puffed and golden brown, 20 to 30 minutes. Cool.

  6. 6

    Split each puff halfway and put in the custard filling (recipe below).

  7. 7

    CUSTARD FILLING: Beat yolk and sugar until white. Pour in milk bit by bit while mixing until sugar is melted.

  8. 8

    Put in flour, cornstarch, vanilla and mix until smooth.

  9. 9

    Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly until mixture boils and is thick.

  10. 10

    Cool before putting into puffs.
