Kue Sus

Kue Sus or Choux Pastry reminds me of my childhood in Indonesia as I ate it so often when I was growing up. My mom usually bought it from a bakery, and I never made kue sus from scratch before...luckily, my brother's gf, Siu Fang, visited me few weeks ago and taught me to make this custard puffs...yumm...
so far, I have already made this pastry a couple of times and my family loves it sooo much. Rico even ate them for breakfast, snack and dessert 
Siu Fang's Kue Sus is definitely a keeper; the pastry itself is moist on the inside with a bit of crust on the outside, and the custard has a perfect sweetness & texture...yum..yum..yum..
