**Cream Puff Cake: The Decadent Dessert You’ll Crave Again and Again**
If you love the light, airy goodness of cream puffs but want something easier to slice and serve, then Cream Puff Cake is your new best friend. This dessert takes all the best parts of a classic cream puff — fluffy pastry, rich custard, and a dusting of powdered sugar — and turns it into a luscious cake that’s perfect for gatherings, celebrations, or just treating yourself.
### What Makes Cream Puff Cake So Special?
The magic of Cream Puff Cake lies in its layers. A golden, slightly crispy puff pastry crust topped with a generous layer of creamy vanilla custard and finished with a cloud of whipped cream. Each bite offers a delightful contrast of textures — crisp on the outside, creamy and soft inside — that melts in your mouth.
### Ingredients You’ll Need
* Choux pastry dough (the same dough used for cream puffs or eclairs)
* Eggs, butter, flour, and water (for the pastry)
* Milk, sugar, egg yolks, flour or cornstarch, and vanilla extract (for the custard)
* Heavy whipping cream and powdered sugar (for the topping)
### How to Make It
1. **Prepare the Choux Pastry:** Cook the dough on the stovetop, then beat in eggs until smooth. Spread it evenly in a baking pan and bake until golden and puffed.
2. **Make the Custard:** Whisk together egg yolks, sugar, and flour, then cook with warm milk until thickened. Stir in vanilla for a fragrant finish.
3. **Layer the Cake:** Once the pastry is cool, spread the creamy custard evenly over it.
4. **Top with Whipped Cream:** Whip heavy cream with powdered sugar until stiff peaks form, then spread or pipe over the custard layer.
5. **Chill Before Serving:** Refrigerate the cake for a few hours or overnight to let the layers set and flavors meld.
