Mon Cher Éclair

Recipes that show you how to turn the classic French dough into modern-day pastries bursting with bold new flavors and bright colors—plus savory delights.

Taking the love of French pastries into the kitchen, Mon Cher Éclair shows how rewarding it is to make these delectable treats at home. Using just a couple of simple techniques, home cooks can easily master the basic recipe for pâte à choux dough and use it to make beautiful éclairs with modern flavor combinations such as butterscotch-bourbon or Meyer lemon cream. The dough is also the base for an array of profiteroles and cream puffs, which make great appetizers and desserts. With more than forty recipes ranging from traditional to trendy, savory to sweet, rustic to artistic, this small cookbook will make home cooks look like a very big deal.

"Food writer Charity Ferreira's collection of éclair recipes was influenced by desserts around the world that all translate splendidly into the custard-filled pastry we all know and love. Ever wish your éclair was filled with Nutella instead of plain old regular delicious pastry cream? Now's the time!" —Food Republic
