Use this recipe as your base for all choux-based creations. To make profiteroles pipe into rounds or to make eclairs simply pipe into lines, remember to smooth the pastry with a wet finger before baking. Bake as required and a top tip is to remove from the oven early, use a skewer to pierce a hole in each piece and return to the oven. This will ensure the steam can escape and dries out the inside to create a hollow centre. Once the pastry is cooled you can fill with any flavour cream and top with any topping, the flavour combinations are endless!
