When else can you indulge in baking if not on a cold winter morning? Bake, don't hesitate, choux are the closest relatives of eclairs and profiteroles made from the same choux pastry, but smaller in size and not necessarily sweet, more often cheese or completely empty. The dough for choux is called choux, it is a surprise and a miracle, it is inflated from the inside into hollow balls exclusively by hot air, and is there many calories in the air? A pile of choux with champagne, which is also nothing but bubbles, is definitely harmless to the conscience and the figure (well, or almost).
