Mom’s Famous Cream Puffs

LOVE CREAM PUFFS? THEN YOU MUST TRY MY MOM’S FAMOUS RECIPE!!!!! UNBELIEVABLE!!!
These cream puffs are unlike any others you may have had before. For my mom’s famous cream puffs, the secret lies in her amazing filling. Some try to pass off a filling of bland vanilla pudding. Not this time.
This filling does have a pudding base but with the addition of heavy cream whipped in you just can’t go wrong. It is rich, decadent and everything a cream puff filling should be! The shells are also ultra light making them the perfect vessel to hold all of that yummy cream! You can even make the shells ahead of time and freeze them! You can make the cream a day ahead, too. Then just stuff them before serving.
I have even stuffed them the night before and they were perfect the next day. I would just hold off on the powdered sugar or it can get funky in the refrigerator. Sprinkle it on with a small sieve or shaker right before you serve them! If powdered sugar is not your thing, then you can try drizzling the tops with melted chocolate. That’s definitely never a bad idea! I have one below that you can see drizzled with chocolate! Sprinkles would also be fun on top and the kids would go crazy for that!

Blueberry And Coconut Overnight Oats.

These blueberry overnight oats are made extra creamy and delicious with coconut milk. Overnight oatmeal is the best breakfast because it takes just 5 minutes to make and is perfect for meal prep!

Overnight oats with coconut milk and blueberries are one of my favorite spring breakfasts. Coconut milk adds extra creaminess and a little extra “something” that regular overnight oats don’t have.

If you’re new to overnight oatmeal, they are a combination of rolled oats, milk, and a variety of toppings and flavorings. This is such a popular breakfast option because you can make overnight oats in just about 5 minutes and have breakfast prepped for 4 days!

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup full fat coconut milk see note #1
  • 1 cup frozen blueberries plus more for topping, see note #2
  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 1 cup unsweetened unflavored soy milk or milk of choice
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup or agave syrup (optional)
