It's Five Ingredient's Friday Recipe Exchange
These Cream Puffs are great for filling with your favorite
chicken salad, ham salad, or if you prefer pudding of your choice. They
are a real crowd pleaser and I like them best because,
they form a small whole for the filling and they make wonderful finger sandwiches!

These sound wonderful!! Love the added touch, the wonderful pictures!! Thanks for sharing.
Me again, I just had to come back and tell you how I love your mom's kitchen and how sweet that little table is all set up where you and your mom ate. How neat!
What a cute kitchen! And it's been forever since I made cream puffs - what fun!
The pictures are great. I've never made cream puffs, yet I love them. I'll have to give this a shot.
I didn't know making cream puffs were so easy! Thanks!
Yuuummmmmmm..........she said while wiping the drool off her chin! I have a shrimp dip that would be most excellent inside those.
Your mom's kitchen is just beautiful! That sounds like a great recipe!
Just like Michelle, I had no idea cream puffs were so easy to make! Thanks for the recipe!
Oh Pamela, just the other day I was craving these and didn't have a recipe to make them. This is perfect...thanks for sharing :)
Mine is up as well :)
That is so cute, the kitchen and I LOVE cream puffs. Another winner for the holidays that are quickly approaching. Thanks bunches!!
We were just talking about cream puffs the other day. My mother's cousin makes dozens of cream puffs every year to celebrate her husband's release from a Prisoner Of War camp after WWII. He was part of that horrific Batan March and imprisoned by the Japanese for years. When he was asked what he wanted when he got home he said "Cream Puffs" - and so the tradition began.
My mom has an apple kitchen too, she'd LOVE your mom's kitchen! It's so cute! I'm planning on having an apple kitchen as well..when I finally get my own kitchen!
I love cream puffs, thanks for the easy recipe! =)
Just passing through to add you to the CWO blog ring. Welcome aboard.
Those cream puffs look good.
I think you have my husband figured out! Just right.
My sister has an apple kitchen, too. She's a teacher and her apple collection just grows and grows every year.
My mother-in-law makes great cream puffs. I need to try them.
Hey, you should link yesterday's embarrassing moment on my daughter's blog - she's trying to get links to embarrassing moment confessions. Go to http://kristenssocalledlife.blogspot.com/2006/09/whats-your-most-embarassing-moment.html and link up. It'll be fun!
I just had to stop back and ask... in that first picture of the kitchen, do you happen to know where your mom got those placemats or what looks to be a framed apple print..maybe cross-stitched? And in the 2nd pic.. those ultra cute apple ceramic flour + sugar containers? My mom would absolutely LOVE them and I'm trying to come up with ideas for Christmas =)
Larae, I bought her the place mats at Country Kitchen restaurant. The canisters came from Kirklands, but they don't carry them anymore.
Here is an incredible website that has a lot of apple decor such as an apple plate rack, a country braided rug, apple basket clock (all under $14.99): www.collectionsetc.com I have used the site and they are great, they even have apple chair covers. Most items are listed under country themes.
Hope this helps! Talk to you later!
