First on the Choux

Choux pastry, or pâte à choux is pronounced as shoo pastry or pah ta shoo. After watching Adrinao Zumbo with his Croquembouche on Masterchef Australia I was immediately inspired! So this is my first on cream puffs using his recipe. I always thought that cream puffs were difficult to make, but I was wrong! I did not even had to use my Kitchen Aid. oh Joy! I love the black dots on the pastry creme, they are real vanilla beans. The choux pastry looks a little dark on the picture thou, I was so afraid that the pastry would not rise after reading from so many sources. So being very paranoid, I baked the pastry a little longer. Will improve on it the next round! and will try it out with chocolate pastry creme. Yums!
