Today Madeline and Mommy made cream puffs for Grandpa Ron's Birthday. They were always his favorite so we make them every year on his birthday! Last year was the first year Madeline got to eat one and this year she got to help Mommy make them :-)
First we had to make the chocolate pudding filling. We started by pouring the pudding mix into the bowl
and adding the milk. 
Madeline really enjoyed the next part... stirring, 
until it was nice and smooth :-)
Then is was time to taste... delicious!!! 
Madeline even wanted to lick the extra off the whisk :-)
Next it was time to make the "Puff" part of the cream puffs. We started out by adding butter 
and water to the sauce pan.
Then it was time to move to the stove and let Mommy take over for a while. Once the butter and water came to boil we quickly added the flour and stirred it all together.
Then we turned off the heat and added the eggs. 
All that was left was plopping them onto the cookie sheet - Madeline loved watching them "plop"! 
Next into the oven and we were done! 
We invited Grandma Judy over for dinner (another one of our and Grandpa Ron's favorites... pork chops, dumpling and sauerkraut!) and our fabulous dessert!!!
We all thought everything was delicious :-)
And we all think Madeline will love keeping this tradition alive!
