Best 4 Powder Puffs Recipes

CREAM PUFFS

Steps:

• Mix together vanilla instant pudding mix, cream and milk. Cover and refrigerate to set.
• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• In a large pot, bring water and butter to a rolling boil. Stir in flour and salt until the mixture forms a ball. Transfer the dough to a large mixing bowl. Using a wooden spoon or stand mixer, beat in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each. Drop by tablespoonfuls onto an ungreased baking sheet.
• Bake for 20 to 25 minutes in the preheated oven, until golden brown. Centers should be dry.
• When the shells are cool, either split and fill them with the pudding mixture, or use a pastry bag to pipe the pudding into the shells.

MOM'S POTATO PUFFS

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, stir together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Mix in the mashed potatoes and egg until well blended.
• Heat oil in a deep-fryer or heavy deep skillet to 365 degrees F (180 degrees C). Carefully drop the potato mixture by spoonfuls into the hot oil, and fry until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Remove from oil to drain on paper towels.

POWDER PUFFS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 190c (375f).
• Heat trays.
• Beat egg whites until stiff.
• Gradually add the sugar, beating well.
• Add egg yolks.
• Sieve all dry ingredients together twice and fold into mixture.
• Fold in boiling water.
• Place heaped teaspoonfuls of mixture on hot greased trays and bake in oven for 5 minutes.
• Remove to a wire rack and cool before storing in an air-tight container until required.
• Six hours before serving, sandwich pairs together with whipped cream, and dust tops with icing (confectioner's) sugar.

CURRY BEEF PUFFS RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and garlic, and cook for 3-4 minutes, until the onion is translucent and starting to caramelize.
• Add the ground beef and cook, breaking up with a spatula, until the beef is cooked through and browned, about 4-6 minutes. Drain off any excess grease.
• Add the McCormick® Curry Powder, cumin, sugar, pepper, and salt. Stir until well combined, about 2 minutes more.
• Pour the beef broth into a liquid measuring cup and stir in the cornstarch until dissolved, then pour into the skillet with the beef. Stir to combine, then bring to a simmer. Cook until the liquid has thickened and no longer pools, 3-5 minutes. Transfer the beef mixture to a bowl and let cool completely.
• While the meat is cooling, remove the puff pastry from the freezer and let sit at room temperature for 25-35 minutes, until thawed but still firm. Unfold the puff pastry sheets and cut each into 6 roughly 5-inch squares.
• Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Spoon 2½-3 tablespoons of the beef filling onto the center of each pastry square. Fold diagonally to form triangles, pressing the edges together and being careful to keep the filling from touching the edges of the pastry. Crimp the edges with a fork to seal. Transfer to the prepared baking sheets.
• Chill the curry puffs on the baking sheets in the refrigerator for 20 minutes to firm up the pastry.
• Arrange a rack in the center of the oven. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
• In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and water.
• Remove one tray of puffs from the refrigerator and use a pastry brush to brush the egg wash over the puffs. Bake for 18-20 minutes, until puffed and golden brown. Remove from the oven and repeat with the remaining puffs.
• Let the puffs rest for 10 minutes, then top each with a sprig of cilantro before serving.
• Enjoy!
