Homemade Cream Puff's w/ Custard Filling.. I have wonderful memories of my mother making these cream puffs for us kid's when we were growing up. It was one of my favorite desserts. I passed down the tradition, and made them as a special treat for my children as they were growing up. I still make them from time to time, and use the same recipe my mother used. My mother would drizzle a homemade chocolate syrup on top of the cream puff. So delish! I start by making the pastry shell..Let cool..Cook a homemade custard filling. Let cool. Cut the top off the pastry shell and hollow out the inside dough. Dip both the shell and top in powdered sugar..Fill with the custard, add some homemade whipped cream, replace the top. Drizzle w/chocolate if desired.. Enjoy!
