Today I got the distinct pleasure of watching hubby teaching #3 to make homemade cream puffs. He had already made the shells and part of the cream filling by the time he found out that she really wanted to help so they ended up finishing up making the filling and the chocolate topping and they filled them together. Since this is basically a picture post, if you’re hungry, I apologize in advance. It’s going to make your mouth water.
Can’t wait for another hour when we can finally sink our teeth into those babies!
After they filled them but before the chocolate

Daddy teaching daughter to make the chocolate topping
Chocolate up close - his hand is moving so fast it's blurry!
Starting to add the chocolate
You have to move fast because the chocolate cools fast!
#3 Takes the wheel.....er... spoon!
Two go faster than one
How better to bond than over life lessons in chocolate?
Can't cook without getting a little on yourself!
Finished product ready to go back in the fridge to chill.
That stuff is good on everything!....Even my finger.

Fabulous post. My mouth is watering now and I can almost taste that chocolate. Could you loan me your husband for a cooking demo?
Funny you should say that. He used to do cooking demos for our neighbors in our old neighborhood so the husbands could learn to cook.
Yum yum…those are better than any bakery I’ve been to!
Me too!
This is one of those father/daughter moments that you will always remember. You have to ask yourself how will your children will remember you.Trying to be a living example as great person and a great parent are so important. Having quality time with any of my wonderful girls give me the opportunity to be that great father! I know that I am blessed. Your loving father.
I hope everyone realized that you are directing that “your loving father” to our girls because if that was to me it would just be creepy! LOL
OMG…these cream puffs look BEYOND heavenly!
A+!
Cream puffs are one of my all-time favorite sweets!
I tried scratching and sniffing my computer monitor to see if I get a whiff of that chocolate drizzle…and I COULD!!!!!
HA!
Have a wonderful day, dear friend!

Ron, they are delicious! My mom could eat her weight in them! She and my cousin just about come to blows over them! LOL
I can’t eat that stuff anymore but it looks DELICIOUS!
(love the title!)
I ate one last night and shouldn’t have. They are so sweet and big that I was miserable afterwards but they are delicious!
OMG! I read this in the morning BEFORE breakfast and I was not so happy with this magic bonding post. GIMME A CREAM PUFF!!!
🙂
I’m better now, but they still look absolutely delicious! Please know my kitchen in Texas – near so many attractions – is open to you and your hubby ANYTIME. 🙂
Hope we can both come ot Texas in either February or March!
Oh my goodness! Those look amazing! Cream puffs are my favorite thing in the world. I almost never get them, but I do love them! Great photos, Peg!
Thanks Linda. #3 kept saying “Stop taking pictures. You’re making me nervous!”
