This Pâte à Choux recipe comes from the time I spent at The Culinary Institute of America and serves as the base of Choux au Craquelin….

Choquettes are the informal, slightly sweet cousin of cream puffs with a sprinkle of crunchy pearl sugar instead of cream filling.

S’mores eclairs – crisp choux pastry fingers with toasted marshmallow pastry cream, chocolate, toasted mini marshmallows & digestive biscuit.

A great make-ahead appetizer: White Cheddar and Thyme Gougères with Smoked Sea Salt.

Barefoot Contessa’s delicious profiteroles drizzled with a quick chocolate sauce and sprinkled with crunchy pistachios.
