Mini cream puffs recipe

Mini Cream Puffs

February 10, 2017

These mini cream puffs will wow your guests. What they won’t know is how easy it is to create these delightful treats!

If you want to make the cream puff shells in advance and have them ready for any drop-in guests, bake the shells and once cooled, place them on a cookie sheet and put them in the freezer. Once frozen, put the shells in a resealable freezer bag. Freezing them on a cookie sheet before putting them in a bag keeps them from sticking together or damaging the delicate shell. When you are ready to fill the shells, just take however many shells you want out of the freezer and put in the refrigerator to thaw for an hour before filling (it takes no time at all to create the filling).

This is a super easy dessert to have on hand for any last minute guests or for any time you want to treat your family! You can also use this cream puff pastries recipe to create a simple and interesting patriotic dessert for your next Independence Day barbecue!
