This is a WONDERFULLY simple cream puff recipe I've used for many years! I found it in my well used Betty Crocker cookbook that is older than I am, haha. My teen son just made some for our family dessert night but this would be perfect for holiday gatherings as well. He'll be adding this recipe to his cookbook binder that each of my kids keep their faves in. ( It's a great homeschool project but, since it's so handy for the future, everyone would benefit from building one! )
You can use this recipe base to make eclair shapes as well. These are often filled with vanilla pudding (shown below with the base) but I enjoy them filled with whipped cream..less sugar/starch which means healthier and lower carb. The flavor can be changed by adding Cinnamon or Orange Vitality essential oils!
