I've been trying other fillings too... french vanilla, the heavy whipping cream version, chocolate, etc.... I just made these for the first time yesterday. I was amazed at how easy they were to make and how everyone was so impressed with how good they were and how pretty. I couldn't find pistachios so I used walnuts on top. barbchan said:
I will be making these for my first show this Friday evening. It's my open house show!
I've been making them without the pistachios and they turn out just as good. Good Luck on your first show !!! I haven't tried making this yet and I don't know why!! LOL!!! I get requests for a Chili Dip that I make in the summer. It isn't a recipe from Pampered Chef but it sure is a good one. I'll have to try this recipe one weekend when I get together with a bunch of friends.mminikus said:I'm with Beth. Touch Down Taco Dip is my favorite too!

To make choux pastry, you'll need water, butter, flour, and eggs. Start by boiling water and butter together, then add flour and stir until a dough forms. Remove it from heat and let it cool slightly before incorporating eggs one at a time until the mixture is smooth and glossy. Pipe the dough onto a baking sheet and bake until puffy and golden.
Yes, you can prepare Profiterole Puffs ahead of time. Once baked, they can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for a day or two. For longer storage, you can freeze them.
