Mom was a true "Kitchen Cabinet Cook," meaning she'd look in the cabinets and decide what she could do with what she found. One day, one of my dear daughters mentioned that she needed to take a treat associated with another country to school for International Day. Mom went rooting around in the cabinets, grabbed some ingredients, and came up with these yummy treats. Later, my sister, Kathy, told me that she had once taught Mom to make these Cream Puffs, but they were French, not Irish. Kathy also used a homemade filling. Irish or French, just one more reason to miss Mom... =^..^=
