Ingredients

Scale

Choux Pastry

For the base of your Strawberry Cream Puffs, you’ll need 1 cup of water, 1/2 cup of unsalted butter, 1 cup of all-purpose flour, and 4 large eggs. The combination creates a light pastry that puffs up beautifully when baked.

Fresh Strawberries

Use about 2 cups of fresh strawberries for filling your cream puffs. Select ripe berries for the best flavor. You can slice them or leave them whole based on your preference.

Heavy Cream

You will need 1 cup of heavy whipping cream for the filling. Whipping it will create a fluffy texture that complements the strawberries perfectly.

Powdered Sugar

Add 1/4 cup of powdered sugar to sweeten your whipped cream. This ingredient ensures that the filling has just the right amount of sweetness without overpowering the fresh strawberries.

Vanilla Extract

A teaspoon of pure vanilla extract enhances the flavor profile of your filling. It adds depth to the whipped cream and pairs beautifully with strawberries.
