Storing Leftovers
Store filled cream puffs in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. They are best enjoyed within the first 24 hours, as the pastry may soften over time. Unfilled puffs can be stored at room temperature for up to 2 days or frozen for longer storage.
FAQ
Can I use store-bought pastry cream?
Yes, you can use store-bought pastry cream if you’re short on time, but homemade pastry cream has a superior flavor and texture.
How do I keep the puffs from deflating?
Ensure the puffs are baked until they are golden brown and hollow inside. Avoid opening the oven door during baking, as this can cause them to collapse.
Can I make mini cream puffs?
Absolutely! Simply pipe smaller mounds of dough onto the baking sheet and adjust the baking time accordingly.
