How To Make cream puff cake
-
Step 1Pre-Heat oven to 400 degrees
-
Step 2In a sauce pan, combine water and butter and bring to a boil. Remove from heat & beat in the flour, a a little bit at a time until the mixture starts to pull away from the sides of the pan. Add eggs, one at a time, and beat until it forms a sticky (may be a bit runny) dough. Spread into a cake pan and smooth on bottom. Bake at 400 for 15-20 minutes. It will appear golden & very puffy. If big bubbles form,DO NOT break or push them down!) Cool completely before filling.
-
Step 3For the Filling: Beat softened cream cheese until smooth, with a mixer. Adda bit of milk & cream again. Add the remaining milk & the instant pudding mix. Beat for 2 minutes Smooth filling over the cooled cake crust Let the Cool Whip soften and spread over pudding. *You may drizzle with Hershey's chocolate syrup. Keep refrigerated.
