Cream puffs

Description

Perfectly pairs with tea and coffee. The most important thing in this recipe is to make the "right" dough, so follow the instructions carefully and everything will turn out great. Remember churros? Those are also cookies made from choux pastry, but instead of baking in the oven, they're fried in deep oil. Serve warm or cooled. Ideal with tea.
