Classic Cream Puffs from Sunset
Makes 10 servings

Ingredients

  • Cream Puff Dough
  • Filling (choose one of the following):
  • -Ice cream
  • -Chocolate-Orange Cream
  • -Lightly sweetened whipped cream flavored with vanilla or a liqueur
  • Chocolate ice cream topping (optional)
  • Powdered sugar (optional)

Preparation

1. Spoon Cream Puff Dough into 10 equal mounds (about 1/4 cup each) about 2 inches apart on two lightly buttered 12- by 15-inch baking sheets.

2. Bake in a 375° regular or convection oven until puffs are golden, 25 to 35 minutes; if baking the sheets at the same time in one oven, switch their positions halfway through. With a wooden skewer, poke each puff in several places, then continue baking until golden brown, dry, and crisp, 5 to 8 minutes longer. Transfer puffs to racks to cool completely.

3. Slice the top third off each puff. Fill each bottom with 1/2 cup of one of the following: ice cream, Chocolate-Orange Cream, or lightly sweetened whipped cream flavored with vanilla or a liqueur. Cover with tops, and drizzle each puff with 2 to 3 teaspoons chocolate ice cream topping or sprinkle lightly with powdered sugar.
