• Hello! The other day I tried making a Paris-Brest with praline crème mousseline. But it didn’t quite work out because I opened the oven a minute too early, which caused the choux pastry to collapse and deflate just before coming out of the oven. Instead of throwing it away, I just cut it down the middle and used the two thin pieces as the top and bottom.

      But since I’d only used half the filling, I thought I’d try piping the exact same shape—why not make some profiteroles? And I think the profiteroles turned out great! They were light, airy, and puffy. I’d also add that the creamy praline gave them a nice sweet touch.

        Hey Sam! Great recovery and smart use of the pastry. The profiteroles look well risen, light, and evenly browned, while the praline mousseline adds a rich finish. Next time, let the Paris-Brest dry fully before opening the oven. What would you refine first? 👏
