Cream puffs with milk cream
Description
The dish is prepared without unnecessary complications. Cream puffs are very dangerous because you can eat a whole baking sheet at once — they're that delicious and airy! Of course, according to the classic recipe, the perfect filling for cream puffs is a milk custard cream — it soaks the puffs well and prevents them from becoming stale. If desired, add vanilla, mint, or other essences to the cream to make it more aromatic and flavorful. Serve the finished dessert immediately.
