Step 1: For the cream puff
Ingredients:
- cream
Step 2: Preheat the oven to 40
Equipment:

Step 3: Place the butter and the water into a small sauce pan on the stove top and bring to a boil.

Step 4: Remove from the heat and place in the bowl of a stand mixer. Allow to cool for at least 10 minutes. You may run the whisk attachment to help the mixture to cool. Do not add the eggs while it is still very hot or the eggs will cook and this wont turn out right.Once the mixture has cooled, add the eggs by a small drizzle while whisking on a medium speed. Allow mixture to continue whisking at a medium high speed for about 5 minutes. The idea being to whip a lot of air into the batter.While the mixture is whipping, prepare a half sheet rimmed baking dish with a sheet of parchment paper. Once the batter is done whisking, transfer to a piping bag fitted with a inch plain tip. Pipe into circles the size of a quarter on the parchment paper. Leave some space between for rising.
