minutesIngredients
50g unsalted butter (softened)
60g sugar
60g all-purpose flour
A pinch of salt
Directions
- Cream the butter and sugar together until smooth.
- Add the flour (and salt, if using) and mix until it forms a dough.
- Roll the dough between two sheets of parchment paper to about 2–3mm thick.
- Freeze for at least 30 minutes, or until firm.
- Cut out circles (about the same size as your choux piped mounds) and place on top of each choux puff before baking.
- Bake with your choux at 180°C — the craquelin will melt and form that beautiful crispy shell on top.
