Do-Ahead Tip: Make cream puff dough as directed, dropping dough by heaping teaspoonfuls onto a cookie sheet lined with waxed paper. Freeze until firm. Place frozen dough in an airtight container or resealable plastic freezer bag; keep frozen up to 2 months. To bake, place as many frozen puffs as needed on the sprayed cookie sheet and continue as directed. |
