Sweet choux pastry
Description
Perfectly pairs with tea and coffee. If you'd like to try delicious cream puffs with sweet or savory filling, take a look at this recipe. Sugar is added to the dough in case you plan to make a sour or salty filling. For example, I really enjoy the combination of sweet dough with a savory filling. The baked goods are ready. Serve at the table.
