Now, I've made choux buns before and the crème pâtissière recipe was a little different. That' s because I like to adapt and constantly improve my cooking and baking and find the best outcome. Heat the cream in a sauce pan over medium heat stirring constantly untill it comes to a boil. take off heat. add hot cream to chocolate in a medium bowl, stirring untill all chocolate has melted, add butter at once, and stir untill melted. Not only the basic Choux Pastry recipe is ridiculously versatile, you always get amazingly fluffy, light and delicious little treats!.

Flavouring Choux Pastry with Coffee is a real classic French recipe. Although more famously used to flavour Eclairs, I am today making a mini version of this icon with Coffee Choux Buns. It has all the traditional Choux Pastry elements: Bellini Choux Buns : Choux buns with fizzy prosecco, fresh peaches, and butter. Blueberry and White Chocolate Bagels : Blueberry bagels frosted with white chocolate and dipped in runny honey. Melt butter in a saucepan, add the brown sugar and mix till dissolved.
