Gold Embellished S’more Cream Puffs

Gold Embellished S'more Cream Puffs | Pizzazzerie.comGuess what August 10th is? National S’MORES DAY. A whole day devoted to toasted ooey gooey chocolate amazingness. I decided to up my game this year and whip out some of the techniques I learned in Paris last month. Behold…gold embellished s’more cream puffs. They’re almost too pretty to eat except that they’re delicious so of course you have to eat them.

I used to be intimidated by cream puff dough (pâte à choux) which is also used to make eclairs. Not anymore! I finally dove in, and I’m so glad I did. These fancy little cream puffs are oh so easy. Seriously. Only a few ingredients and ready within the hour. You can decorate and fill them with whatever you please. I opted to swap out traditional whipped cream filling for a delicious toasted marshmallow for my s’more cream puffs. Look for “s’more” cream puff recipes coming soon (<–did you see what I did there)!

The topping for my s’more cream puffs is obviously chocolate! A simple chocolate ganache is ready in minutes and makes the perfect base for my gold leaf flakes. I picked these up at a little shop in Paris on my trip. Don’t fret! You can buy it on Amazon in flake form (this is what I used) or in sheets. A little goes a long way. For a simpler alternative, use graham cracker crumbs!

You can easily recreate this idea with eclairs and several marshmallows inside each one. Or fill with marshmallow filling. Your friends will think you’re all fancy schmancy with the gold leaf too! It’s just oh so pretty. Full recipe is below! Don’t be scared by the number of steps. It’s really easy and ready within an hour. Yum!
