Our local grocery store used to sell these giant ones when I was little, & they were heaven.
I'm still trying to find a similar recipe.
This one is from Eugenie Kitchen on YouTube

Simple Cream Puffs
Learning new baking recipes/techniques is one of my goals for 2025. I’ve always wanted to make choux pastry, but it seemed intimidating. However, once I tried it. I realized that as long as I was patient and followed specific instructions, I could attain success! 🤩It helps to have a good recipe, and this one comes from Natasha‘s Kitchen. She also has an instructional video on YouTube, which I found to be quite helpful.As a side note, I recently finished watching the first 2 seasons of the anime “Mashle.” The main character loves cream puffs, so this was another reason I had to try this recipe! 🤣#january2026 #newyear2025 #French #pastry #baking #sweet #dessert #special

Basic Cream Puffs
I wanted to eat cream puffs.If you use too little egg, or too much egg, the don't turn out well, so add the egg a little at a time. Prepare more egg than you may actually use; that's why I suggested 2 to 2 1/2 large eggs. For 16 (6 cm [2.4 in] diameter). Recipe by Bull Baron

Strawberry & Banana Cream Puffs
I really like the double cream strawberry puffs from a cake store, and since that cake store is no longer in business, I made them myself.Prepare 2 eggs and first separate the egg yolk to use for the custard.Taste the custard. If it doesn't seem sweet enough, then add sugar while it's still warm. Recipe by Shiroi grape
Cream Puffs with Vegetable Oil and One Egg
I found a recipe in a magazine for cream puffs that used vegetable oil. However, I was worried of wasting ingredients if it didn't turn out well. So then I tried using one egg and it was a success! I get fluffy and soft cream puffs every batch. They are not too big and 6 cream puffs is good for a small family. There's no waste or frustration involved. The puffs themselves are not so sweet, so sweeten the cream a little more than usual.The hints are to check the consistency of the dough and to pipe out the dough to form the shells. Refer to Step 7 to see the consistency of the dough. When you pipe out the dough with a pastry bag, don't squeeze out into a spiral shape, just squeeze it out in one spot. Although this depends on your oven, if 200°C is too high, turn down the temperature to 180℃ to avoid scorching the shells. Last but not least, don't be too. Recipe by Pokuchan
Whipped Custard Cream for Cream Puffs
My family recipe for custard cream is so delicious, and adding whipped cream made it perfect. It was the best for cream puffs.The amounts are estimates. They can change based on how much the choux expands. Recipe by ko-ko
Crispy Cream Puff Pastry
I made choux pastry for the first time in ages and it came out tasting really good. Adding almonds to the choux pastry makes it smell so amazing, I really love this recipe. (Makes 12-13 7cm cream puffs)Please get these in the oven as quickly as possible while it's still warm. If you can't get it to pipe out properly put the mixture back in the bowl and keep it heated at an appropriate temperature suspended over a bowl of hot water.Baking time will vary depending on your oven so please adjust it accordingly.(Recipe by nyonta)
Foolproof Cream Puffs
This is my family's tried and true cream puff recipe.It's important to make sure to preheat the oven and whip this dough up as quickly as possible. Recipe by Komatsuta
Cream Puffs with Soy Milk
The soy milk cream is very light and I tried to match with light choux pastries made with soy milk and vegetable oil, instead of butter.Do not open the oven door while baking the choux pastries. If you open the door the pastries shrink. Bake well until even the cracks of the pastries look golden brown. Omit rum if you're giving these to children. For making 9. Recipe by Akito mama
Mini Cream Puffs with a Message
I didn't want to write a message on a Shinkansen (bullet train) shaped birthday cake for my son. I used mini cream puffs, which were originally for a decoration around the cake. I put leftover whipped heavy cream on top, and wrote the message on the cream so that it's easy to see the letters. They looked nice.・You can use any kind of mini cream puff.・Please add an appropriate amount of sugar to the heavy cream. If you use readymade whipped cream, it's really easy.I used leftover whipped heavy cream from making the cake this time. Recipe by Ichigopapiko
Easy Yummy Cream Puffs
These cream puffs are so light and delicious my whole family loved!
Surefire Cream Puffs
This is a recipe I finally came up with after many repeated failures.In step 3 if you don't properly heat the flour it won't expand later!Adding milk gives the dough it's well-defined feel.If you don't put in the cream right before eating, then it'll become soft!When making these as a present, prepare the cream and the dough separately, and put the cream in right before eating. That's best! Recipe by Wagamamamusume.
Strawberry Heart Creme Puffs
I wanted to make a pastry with a rich taste using eggs. Cool them well and enjoy!You'll be tempted to open the oven midway through baking, but absolutely do not do it! For those of you who enjoy a harder puff, change the cake flour to strong bread flour. It'll be even better if you use powdered sugar that isn't moist. For about 8~10 heart shapes. Recipe by Asaemon

Good for Beginners Cream Puffs
I failed many times at making cream puffs. So from those experiences, I wanted to make a no-fail cream puff recipe!! If you are going to make it, you want to succeed, right?Be careful when adding the egg at Step 7! The amount of egg depends on the amount of moisture evaporating from the dough at Step 4.If you want to add flavor to the dough, reduce 110 ml water to 60 ml water + 50 ml milk. Recipe by LAYLA*
Easy Cream Puffs for the Lazy
I wondered if I could cut corners and still make cream puffs. So I cut out as many steps as possible to make cream puffs that still were like properly made ones.*The puffs won't turn out if the batter isn't warm before being putting in the oven.*If your batter doesn't cook properly starting in a 200°C oven, your oven may actually be cooler than the indicated temperature, so try starting at 220°C. Baking times and temperatures will vary depending on your oven, so please make a note of that. For 3 large cream puffs. Recipe by Kantande oishiigasuki

Craquelin Cream Puff [Mascarpone Filling]
A crunchy cream puff called choux au craquelin in French.It has a top cookie crust that makes it a little more special compared to regular cream puff.Here it is filled with mascarpone that tastes creamy but not overly sweetened.
Coffee Cream Tart
This tart is a great ending to any meal. Creamy coffee flavored pastry cream, silky smooth with a crisp chocolate crust and topped with fresh whipped cream.
Bitter Sweet Cocoa Shortbread Cream Puffs
Make a dessert with bitter sweet cocoa.The number of the eggs used in the choux pastry dough depends on the size of the eggs. Add 2 eggs first and add the 3rd egg a little at a time. Once the custard cream is done, cool it off as quickly as possible.These cream puffs are delicious enough even without the shortbread dough. For 25 (when piping 3-4 cm dough). Recipe by Hashigosha
Fluffy Choux Cream
After many failures, I came up with this.The key to making a good choux pastry is adjusting the amount of egg. After several trials, you can tell the appropriate texture of the batter. When you make a good batter, you can clearly see a triangle on a balloon whisk.Another key is the baking time! Do not open the oven door during baking and find the best baking time for yourself, one that gives you good hollows in the choux buns. For making about 6. Recipe by Myumako
Cream Wafers
This is an old, family favorite! My mom always made these for Christmas when I was little and I would make myself sick eating them. My daughters and I make them every year and we still make ourselves sick eating them. I know, I know! That probably isn't a very appealing way to describes these little bits of heaven, but once you try them, you'll know exactly what I'm talking about!
