Stop the Press, ya’ll, because Christmas came early this year!

Oh my god! Mark the day, the time, and the year! I finally have done it! I’ve come up with an excellent working recipe for gluten-free pate choux! What does this mean? It means that after six long years, WE CAN ALL EAT cream puffs and profiteroles, éclairs, St. Honore cakes (St. Honore is the patron saint of pastry chefs and is a centuries old recipe), and yes, we can construct the most breathtaking Christmas centerpiece ever, the Croquembouche.

Below is the recipe for profiteroles, but not to worry, cream puffs will appear next, then the Croquembouche.
