Ingredients
Pastries:
-
2 cups water
-
1 cup unsalted butter
-
½ teaspoon salt
-
2 cups all-purpose flour
-
10 large eggs
Filling:
-
6 cups milk
-
12 fluid ounces sweetened condensed milk
-
1 ½ cups white sugar
-
3 large eggs
-
¼ teaspoon salt
-
8 tablespoons cornstarch
-
1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract
Directions
-
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
-
Combine water, butter, and salt for pastries in a saucepan on the stove; bring to a brisk boil. Add flour, then turn off the heat and stir vigorously until mixture is smooth.
-
Pour mixture into a large mixing bowl. Beat in eggs, one at a time, until mixture is thick and shiny. Spoon 12 dollops of the mixture onto each of the prepared baking sheets, about 2 inches apart.
-
Bake in the preheated oven until light golden brown, about 30 minutes, swapping racks halfway through. Remove to cooling racks and let cool, about 30 minutes.
-
Meanwhile, combine milk, condensed milk, sugar, eggs, and salt for filling in a pot over medium-high heat. When the mixture starts to steam, reduce heat to medium.
-
Place cornstarch in a bowl and stir in about 2 tablespoons of the hot milk mixture. Stir vigorously until it's completely liquid, then pour into the pot with the remaining milk mixture. Cook, stirring constantly, until custard thickens.
-
Turn off the heat, add vanilla, and continue stirring for about 8 minutes. Let cool, about 10 minutes; it will thicken as it cools.
-
Cut the tops off the cooled pastries. Add the custard filling and put the tops back on. Place in the refrigerator for 1 hour before serving.
