Instructions
Make the chocolate cream puffs as described in the above-linked recipe, but add red velvet food coloring to the slightly cooled dough when you add the eggs. Notice what the color of the chocolate cream puff dough looks like and how they turned out a bit darker or close the color of the dough. Once baked, they almost are two-toned in color. Use this as a gauge to how much food coloring to add.
Use these red velvet cream puffs to stuff with savory filings to serve as appetizers. It can be as simple as chickenĀ or egg salad. For sweet treats, fill them sweetened whipped cream, chocolate or caramel topping/sauce, ice cream, Bavarian cream, and more. Make a croquembouche for a special occasion or holiday.
