Cream Puff Dessert

Ingredients:

• Crust:
• 1 cup water
• 1 stick butter
• 1 cup flour
• 4 eggs

• 3 cups milk
• 1 pkg. cream cheese, softened (8oz.)
• 1 pkg. cream cheese, softened (3oz.)
• 2 boxes instant vanilla pudding (3oz. size)
• 1 carton whipped topping (12oz.)

Directions:

For crust: Bring the water and butter to a boil and remove from heat. Add the flour and mix until it turns to a ball. Add the eggs, 1 at a time, and stir after each egg. Spread the mixture into a greased 10x15 inch pan as smoothly as possible. Bake at 375 degrees F for 35-40 minutes and let cool completely.

For Filling: In a large bowl, with an electric mixer, on low speed, blend the milk and softened cream cheese together. Add the pudding and beat until it is thick. Spread the pudding over the cool crust. Spread the whipped topping over the pudding. Keep refrigerated until ready to serve. You can drizzle chocolate syrup over the whipped topping before serving if you like.

By Karen from Port Clinton OH Feedback: RE: Cream Puff Dessert This is the same as my cream puff recipe that I have used for many years. But instead of spreading the dough into a cake pan, I drop it by heaping Tablespoon onto a cookie sheet and bake until golden brown. Let cool and cut off about 1/3 of the top. Fill with your choice of pudding type filling (I will have to try your cream cheese filling.) Replace the top and sift a little powdered sugar over the tops. Refrigerate and serve cold. Great recipe for potluck dinners. (02/27/2006) By Harlean from Arkansas Report Spam or Abuse
