Instructions

  1. Cut a 24 cm (about 9.5 in) disk from the puff pastry and prick it; pipe a ring of choux pastry around the edge and 20 small puffs next to it. Bake for 25 minutes at 375°F (190°C).
  2. Make a vanilla pastry cream (milk, yolks, sugar, cornstarch), press plastic wrap onto the surface and let cool; lighten it with whipped cream.
  3. Fill the puffs with cream from the bottom.
  4. Make a light golden caramel, dip the tops of the puffs and stick them onto the ring.
  5. Fill the center with cream using a piping bag and keep chilled until serving.
