Tasty Tuesday....The Best Cream Puffs

Hello Ladies!

Today I am linking up with The Blended Blog for Tasty Tuesday!





This week I am sharing some of our favorite game day foods, and today I am talking about one of our favorite desserts!  Personally, I think dessert is the best part of any meal.  I love being in charge of desserts, and I am always first in line to volunteer to bring a sweet treat!  

Today I am sharing with you guys the BEST cream puff recipe ever!  I have been making this exact recipe for over 15 years now, it's a winner and everyone LOVES it!



INGREDIENTS:
1 cup water

1/2 cup butter or stick margarine

1 cup all-purpose flour

4 large eggs

Cream Filling (see below)

Powdered sugar (optional)

Hot fudge Sauce

CREAM FILLING:
1 large box instant vanilla pudding
heavy cream
milk



DIRECTIONS:
1.  Heat oven to 400.

2.  Heat water and butter to rolling boil in 2 1/2 quart saucepan.  Stir in flour; reduce heat to low.  Stir vigorously over low heat about 1 minute or until mixture forms a ball; remove from heat.





3.  Beat in eggs, all at once, with spoon; continue beating until smooth.  Drop dough by scan 1/4 cupfuls about 3 inches apart onto an ungreased cookie sheet.





4.  Bake 35-40 minutes or until puffed and golden.  Cool away from draft, about 30 minutes.  Cut off top third of each puff; pull out any strands of soft dough.




5.  Make your pudding according to directions on box, however cut the milk in half and replace it with the heavy cream





6.  Fill puffs with the Cream filling and replace tops. 




The recipe stops there, however I take some hot fudge sauce and heat it up, then pour it into a ziplock baggie, cut it at the tip, and drizzle some chocolate over the top..SO GOOD!


Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve!

These are so delicious.  When I make them, I always double the recipe.
