You prepare an easy pastry dough, pipe little balls onto your baking sheet with a pastry bag. After baking, you fill them with pastry cream, and spin caramel around the tower of puffs with a fork to create thin threads.
A dark, rich, moist chocolate cupcake filled with luscious pastry cream and topped with whipped chocolate ganache. I dressed them up for St. Patrick's Day, but these decadent cupcakes would be perfect any time of year.
I recently needed a couple of desserts to send to work with my husband. I wanted something that was not chocolate, because I was already sending a chocolate cake for one of the desserts.
