Absolutely divine!This recipe, chosen by Caroline from A Consuming Passion, was amazing. It was originally supposed to be a cream puff ring. I read that other TWD bakers were having problems with their "rings" collapsing, so I took the petite cream puff route.
I have made pate a choux (or choux paste...or cream puff dough...) many times before, and was anxious to try Dorie's recipe. LOVED it. The cream puffs had the exact flavor a cream puff should have, and were also the perfect consistency...crisp on the outside, moist on the inside.
It was also relatively easy to pull together.
The chocolate on the outside & the crunch of the almonds just added an extra wonderful flavor and texture.
This will definitely be made in my kitchen again, and again, and again...!!
Anne Marie, your little puffs look so beautiful and tasty!! Well done!!! I think I'll try this recipe again and leave the puff in the oven longer. From what I've read that seems to be the key!
ReplyDeleteWhat pretty puffs! I love reading your blog. I love the bolded words and layout. I want your pesto, too.
ReplyDeleteSo cute! They look eminently poppable.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful puffs. They belong on a magazine cover. And in my kitchen. So I can eat them.
ReplyDeleteThese look so tasty! I am learning to bake as I am raising money to take my autistic brother to Disneyland before he has to enter assisted living. This looks like a winner to sell at work. I am going to try to find the recipe now. Great job.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous!
ReplyDeleteThis recipe reminded me how much I like cream puffs. I hadn't made them in forever. There are definitely going to be more of them in my kitchen this summer.
