Step 3

Spoon batter into a medium bowl. Beat with a mixer at medium speed 2 minutes or until mixture cools to about 120°. Add 2 eggs and egg white, 1 at a time, beating at medium-low speed after each addition until completely combined (mixture will look lumpy but will get smooth quickly).

Gradually drizzle milk mixture into egg mixture, stirring constantly with a whisk. Return mixture to pan. Cook over medium heat until mixture thickens (about 4 minutes), stirring constantly.


Step 6

Remove pan from heat; add butter and 1 teaspoon vanilla, stirring until smooth. Spoon cream into a medium bowl; place bowl in a large ice water–filled bowl. Cool cream completely, stirring occasionally (about 20 minutes). Gently fold in whipped topping.


Step 7

To prepare glaze, combine corn syrup, 1 tablespoon half-and-half, and 1 teaspoon vanilla in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave at HIGH 15 seconds. Add powdered sugar and cocoa; stir with a whisk until smooth (glaze will be thick and sticky).


Step 7

To assemble cream puffs, cut the tops off the cooled puffs. Fill each puff with about 1 tablespoon pastry cream. Dip the tops in glaze, and place on top of filled cream puff.
