Raspberry Cream Puffs
Shell
1/2 C Water
1/4 C Margarine
1/2 C Flour
2 Eggs
1 Tsp. Powdered Sugar
Filling
2 C Cool Whip Liter (non-dairy topping)
1/2 C Raspberries frozen (thawed & mashed)
Pre-heat oven to 400 degrees F.
In a large saucepan, bring water and margarine to a full rolling
boil. Reduce heat to low, and using a wire whisk, stir in flour
vigorously, until mixture forms a ball (about one minute). Remove
from heat.
Beat in eggs, all at one time, and continue beating until smooth. It
is best to use a sturdy spoon, such as a wooden spoon for this step.
Drop dough by heaping teaspoonfuls onto an ungreased baking sheet.
(About 12 evenly spaced mounds).
Bake until puffy and golden colored, 30 - 35 minutes.
Cool in draft-free area.
Using a serrated knife, cut off tops and pull out filaments of soft
dough, leaving a hollow shell with a lid.
Fill each shell with filling (below) and dust with the powdered
sugar a few minutes before serving.
Filling:
In a medium sized mixing bowl, fold together whipped topping and
raspberries until mixed well. Spoon into baked shells according to
instructions above. |
