Tuulihattu!

Hey!

I said I would put recipes now that I got my camera fixed! So today I made tuulihattuja or straight translated windhats ( The name in English is cream puff ). I used to make these a lot when I was 13 but I had a long break ( 5 years ) that I didn't make them. Now I decided to make them again and I am glad I did! :) I made two versions of these...a sweet and a salty version.

So here is what you are going to need!


Step 1: Put the butter and the water in a casserole and warm it up till the butter melts
Step 2: Take the casserole from the stove and add the flour in the mixture
Step 3: Add the eggs one at a time. In the end add the baking powder

I used the städter 14mm to make this shape for my tuulihattu ( click here ). You can also use two spoons and make small balls of the dough. Leave them in the oven for 25-30 minutes ( 200 degrees )depending on the size of your cream puffs. Remember! Do not open the oven til they are ready otherwise there is a chance they will fall flat if you do that. Leave them to cool down.
When they have cooled down cut them in half and fill them.
Here is what you are going to need for the salty tuna filling:
140 gr  tuna
4 spoons  mayonnaise
1 spoon  ketchup
1 spoon mustard
corn ( as much as you like :) )
 Just mix them all together!
For the sweet version I decided to make this blueberry filling! Yummy!
1 dl whipped cream
100 gr cream cheese
icing sugar
100 gr blueberries

Whip the cream and add the cream cheese. Use the icing sugar to sweeten the blueberries a bit ( I didn't use normal sugar because it gets a bit crunchy...if that's even a word ) and add them in the first mixture. Voila!

I recommend you put the filling just before you serve them.

So excited to make this post! :D Hope you like it!

    Ηοw do you know what this blog was supposed to be? I like it this way, but that doesn't mean that I am going to stop putting posts about my thoughts and worries. Besides baking is my passion and mostly this blog is a small escape from the real world :P
