I spent the whole of last Saturday besides doing the marketing….......B *A * K * I * N *G away :P . I was so attracted to this Peach Puffs which I came across while looking for inspiration to bake something new :) I knew I can’t leave it alone…. for the itch urge was too great …so ended up having this for dessert with a cuppa of hot black coffee ! Of course I can’t eat all this alone, so evenly distributed among Piggy cuz and niece and nephew….and kept two for myself * wink,wink** coz waistline is getting broader and the skirt doesn't fit now :P
I have some mangoes in the fridge so I used fresh mangoes instead of peaches…it turned out okay but the shape is errr ..….taste wise it was good , smell delicious with the cinnamon and nutmeg powder . The brioche dough was a bit too soft and it was hard to handle and the end result was SOME very out of shape cinnamon delicious mango puffs….maybe the resting time in the fridge was not enough ( should be at least 24 hours rest time in the fridge ... I sat it there for only 4 hours) or I missed out some texts in my eagerness to get to the dough done. Everything was perfect except the dough was a bit soft , I was not able to roll into a thin sheet. So instead , I just take take a small ball of the dough and using the thumbs to push the dough upwards to line a tart case like making the Portugese egg tart. Filled with rich almond cream and topped with diced mango….mmmmm DELICIOUS though the puffs were a bit out of shape. Can never beat the original one :)) Mine may not attract you but go hop over to Little Blue Hen
I was attracted because she used the brioche dough in place of the normal puff pastry and it was a marvellous bake alright and she is such an innovative person.....
enough resting time, the dough would be firmer :))
I forgotten to make the dough pastry thinner soby the time it proofed the second time it was a bit
thick, if thinner you get to taste more of the fillings :(
big and puffy .....errr...but cute though :p
you can serve them in ramekin if you like :)
delicious with a cuppa of hot black coffee...agree with me?

Thanks to Little Blue Hen for such a creative puff :)))
