Puff Shells




Source of Recipe


Macklinda


List of Ingredients




1 cup water
1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, cut into quarters
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup all-purpose flour
4 eggs, at room temperature



Recipe



Preheat the oven to 400°F.

In a medium saucepan, bring the water, butter, and salt to a boil over medium-high heat. Add the flour all at once and stir quickly with a wooden spoon until the mixture forms a ball; remove pan from the heat.

Add 1 egg and beat with the wooden spoon to blend. Add the remaining eggs one at a time, beating after each addition. When the dough is smooth, spoon 1/4-cup mounds of dough onto a cookie sheet, leaving 2 inches between each dough mound.

Bake for 40 to 45 minutes, or until golden and puffy. Transfer the puffs to a wire rack and let cool completely. With a sharp knife, cut puffs in half horizontally before filling.

About 1 dozen

For Lunch or Dinner: Fill puffs with tuna, chicken, egg, or seafood salad.

For Dessert: Fill puffs with pudding, mousse, or custard and top with whipped cream, chocolate chips or other garnishes.

PREPARATION TIP: To make mini puff shells, drop the dough by tablespoonfuls and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until golden.
