MAKE THE CUSTARD

3. In a pot, heat milk and vanilla over medium heat; ring to a boil and turn off heat.

4. Using a hand mixer, beat the egg yolks and sugar until light and fluffy

5. Add cornstarch and mix until fully incorporated.

7. Over medium heat, whisk the mixture constantly until thickened - 7-10 minutes.

8. Remove from the heat and add butter, whisking to combine.

9. Strain the custard into a bowl; cover with plastic wrap and chill for 2 hours

MAKE THE PUFFS (“PATE A CHOUX”)

1. In a large pot, bring water, butter, salt, and sugar to a boil over high heat.

2. Once the water begins to boil, remove the pot from the heat and immediately add the flour, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon until the liquid is absorbed and the mixture begins to form a ball.

3. Return the pot to the heat and cook for another 30 seconds to remove excess moisture; remove from heat and put in stand mixer.

4. Mix in one egg at a time until fully incorporated.

5. Using a piping bag with a round tip, fill the bag with the batter

6. Place 1” dollops on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet, spaced 1” apart.

7. Use a wet fingertip to gently press down any points on the puffs; brush the egg wash over the puffs

8. Bake for 15 minutes at 425°; reduce heat to 375° and bake for 15 minutes.

9. Fill the cream puffs with custard

MAKE THE CARAMEL

1. Add sugar, corn syrup, and water to a pan over medium heat; bring to a boil and cover for 5 min.

2. Remove the lid and cook for an additional 7-10 minutes

3. Remove the pan from the heat and add heavy cream, stirring vigorously.

ASSEMBLE THE CROQUEMBOUCHE

1. Working quickly, dip the cream puffs into the caramel and arrange on a serving platter in a circular pattern.

2. Continue to stack caramel-dipped cream puffs in a tower shape.

3. Once your tower is completed, dip a fork into the caramel sauce and drizzle it around the tower.
