  • Roll out between two nonstick mats to about 5mm thick. Store in freezer until set.
  • Once set, cut using round cutter. Cut to the size of the puff that is piped. (It should fit nicely on top of the puff without being too big or small.)
  • Bake pate a choux at 350°F for 15-20 or until golden brown. (Depending on the oven, the time may vary. They should look like the picture when fully baked.)

For chantilly cream:
