Pumpkin Pie Cream Puffs

Makes: about 24 puffs
Prep Time: 2 hours
Cook Time: 30 minutes

|| Ingredients ||

Choux,
½ cup butter
½ cup water
½ cup milk
1 cup flour
4 eggs plus 1 egg for egg wash
Filling,
½ can Farmers Market Foods Pumpkin Pie Mix
1/3 cup sweetened condensed milk
1 egg
1 teaspoon unflavored gelatin
¼ cup water
1 cup whipping cream
Powdered sugar for topping

|| Directions ||

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
In a medium saucepan over medium/high heat, melt the butter in the water and milk. Add in the flour and mix together with a spatula. Continue to cook down for 5 minutes. Take off the heat and let cool 10-15 minutes. With a hand mixer, mix the batter to release some steam and add in the eggs one at a time mixing well between additions.

Mix the additional egg with 1 tablespoon water in a separate bowl.
Scoop about 2 tablespoons of the choux into a lined baking sheet 2 inches apart. Brush each ball of dough gently with the egg wash.

Bake in the 400 degree oven for 20 minutes then lower the heat to 350 degrees and continue to bake for another 10-15 minutes.

For the filling,
Mix the unflavored gelatin with the cold water and set aside to bloom.
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, cook the pumpkin pie mix, sweetened condensed milk and egg together, stirring continuously until thickened, about 5 minutes. Take off the heat and mix in the bloomed gelatin. Set aside to cool to room temperature.

Whip the whipping cream into soft peaks. Do not over whip. Fold into the cooled whipping cream until smooth. Place into a piping bag with a filling attachment.
Pipe the filling into the cream puffs and place into the fridge to set for 2 hours.
Top with powdered sugar and serve cold.
