Sugar grains chouquettes, a childhood memory
Chouquettes au sucre grains, also known as sugar-coated cream puffs, are a delightful French pastry made from choux pastry. These light and airy treats are often enjoyed as a snack or dessert and are topped with coarse sugar crystals, which add a lovely crunch and a touch of sweetness. Perfectly golden on the outside and soft on the inside, chouquettes are best served fresh and can be enjoyed on their own or with a dipping sauce such as chocolate or caramel. They embody the essence of French patisserie and are a wonderful addition to any gathering or afternoon tea.
