Blackberry Filled Cream Puffs
1/2CUP each milk, water & butter or margarine
1/4TSP salt
1TSP sugar
1CUP flour
4 large eggs at room temperature
Cream:
2CUPS heavy whipping cream
4TBSP sugar
1TSP vanilla extract
12 blackberries
1TSP icing sugar to garnish (optional)
Preheat oven to 425F. Line a baking pan parchment paper or nonstick sheets.
In a saucepan, combine 1/2CUP milk, 1/2CUP water, 1/2CUP butter, 1TSP sugar and 1/4TSP salt. Bring to a light boil over medium heat then remove from heat and stir in your flour with a wooden spoon.
One flour is incorporated, place back over heat stirring constantly for 1 to 2 minutes to release extra moisture and to partially cook flour. A thin layer will form on the bottom of the pot and dough will come together into a ball.
Transfer the dough to a piping bag fitted with a 1/2″ round tip. Pipe roughly 25-30 puffs, each 1” round by 1/2” tall rounds. Keep them 1″ apart. If you get points on the top, wet finger tips lightly with water to smooth tops out.
They were so delicious!
