Cream Puffs

Cream puffs...yum!! I've always loved them since I was a little girl. I still remember going to Costco with my parents and wanting to grab a tub of these:

When my parents would let me, I literally would eat the whole tub myself. Not even kidding. These cream puffs would make me the happiest little girl ever! 

Any who...

I've been craving cream puffs like crazy. In fact, I've been craving for some cream puffs since last week! However, my mom didn't quite get the hint that when I said that I was craving for cream puffs, that I didn't mean, "hey mom, can you please go to a bakery and buy me cream puffs?" I could easily say that I was craving for cupcakes, but that doesn't mean that I'd go out and buy myself a cupcake! That just wouldn't be fun! Long story short, I did end up eating the cream puffs she bought me. They were okay. Somehow though, when I ate another one the day after, the cream tasted sour....yeaaaaaah... that really wasn't fun... Anyways, I wanted MORE cream puffs so I finally made some last night since I knew I wouldn't have to wake up early for school today! Hehe

Here We Go Again

Okay, I don't know whether or not I'm actually craving all the desserts I'm making, or if just miss baking 24/7? Whatever the case may be, let's just say that my family isn't particularly happy with me right now (they're complaining that their pants aren't fitting :P). Hahaha. Anyways, last night I decided that I wanted to make bread/yeast doughs. I made two different baked goods, sweet rolls filled with cream cheese and pretzels. Unfortunately, the pretzels tasted okay but didn't look very "pretty" so I'm hoping to make them again soon and will post it up once I have somewhat perfected it! As for the sweet rolls here they are!

These sweet rolls filled with cream cheese were inspired by Asian pastries that I have always grown up with.  As of now, I'm okay with how they turned out but I'm hoping to possibly find a roll/bread that has a more lighter and airy texture (since that is what most of the Asian bakeries I have been to do).
