Cream Puffs III

 

 Made this on AngahRuz's request and I was obliged because he's been studying hard lately to prepare for his SPM (his first paper will be tomorrow). Besides the two big boyz, Liana loves it too & she had three pieces in one serving and wanted more.... have not seen her eating that much of anything else before.... anyway gotta to stop her as not to spoil her appetite for dinner.

This version produces very nice crispy pastry and it did not shrink after came out from the oven. The inside also cooked well and most of all very delicious with the custard filling. This is the best cream puff recipe of all that I tried - perfect pastry & creamy custard filling.
