Christmas Cream Puffs

When i take a moment to consider my favorite parts of the holiday season it s the memories with my family that always rise to the surface.
Christmas cream puffs. Christmas eve cream puffs. Remove from the heat. Turn down to medium and stir until the dough comes away from the sides of the pan and forms a ball. Not necessarily a holiday staple cream puffs go sadly unnoticed this time of year.
The cream puffs will keep 3 days a 50 54 10 12. Stir until a smooth ball forms. In a large saucepan bring water and butter to a boil over medium heat. Heat oven to 425 f.
One of the things i like best about this time of year is the scent of a fresh christmas tree in the house. Stir in the flour and salt. I was sitting next to the tree the other day enjoying that woodsy aroma and brainstorming recipe ideas when i started to wonder if there was a way to capture that tree essence in cooking. Add flour and salt.
Let stand for 5 minutes. The monster christmas candy cane cream puff. Put the butter and water in a medium pan on high heat and bring to a boil. It s a shame really because cream puffs can be just as festive as any sparkle flecked snowflake shaped frosting painted sugar cookie.
