Scarecrow, Today I baked sticks according to your recipe. But for some reason, the voids inside did not work, but turned out like biscuit sticks. But so delicious!
but in my opinion good fingers - and it tastes like a custard cake?
Scarecrow
Somewhere the technology turned out to be violated or the baking mode failed. It's okay, it happens, especially if this is the first experience. Choux dough always gives a cavity (subject to the necessary conditions, of course), this is its most characteristic feature. But if delicious, then okay.

Scarecrow, although the holes did not work out for me - it's not scary! But it is very tasty !!! Thanks a lot for the recipe

Wow, but how awesome a piece of cake holds a shape!

Thank you, I made it at 14.00, and in the evening I cut it. While cutting did not even budge, cut perfectly!
Moskvichk @
Girls! Very tasty and tender !! When I read the recipe, I thought: oh, how complicated and busy it is ... But in fact, everything is done very quickly and not at all difficult. I made the dough for the first time in my life - and it turned out just great !! the only thing that I put 3 eggs - firstly, they were large, and secondly, I was scared that they would not stir - indeed the state of the dough is slippery))) But in general, everything was perfectly mixed with a mixer, squeezed out through a syringe and baked. I missed with the cream - a lot of sour cream spilled ... so it did not freeze like in the picture ... but still very tasty. The daughter and her son-in-law barely endured an hour and a half - she did not give them a cake - she wanted to soak up more. But this is a punishment for them, for dragging both fotik to work and I can’t expose anything from what I have already done according to your, girls, wonderful and magical recipes !!!! Thank you so much again !!

If there are no voids in the choux pastry, then there are several reasons for this.
1. Liquid dough consistency. (bust with eggs or water)
2. Using flour with low gluten. (The% content of strong gluten should be 28-36%. That is, the flour should be of the highest grade)
If the flour is of low quality, it is recommended to add ammonium, which helps the dough rise and forms cavities.
3. Strong lubrication of the baking tray on which the choux pastry was baked. This results in a torn surface on the bottom of the product.
And I will add a little general information on this test.
The choux pastry dough must be viscous in composition and must have enough moisture. The moisture content of the dough should be 52-54%.
You need to bake choux pastry products for the first 10 minutes at a temperature of 220 degrees, (at this time, the dough sets with a crust) and then the remaining baking time is 20 minutes, at a temperature of 200-210 degrees. (The dough begins to rise, there is a lot of moisture in it. The resulting crust does not allow moisture to come out and therefore swells the dough, forming cavities. The moisture gradually evaporates during baking.)
When mixed into the custard, eggs are added at a temperature of 65-70 degrees. This information is for those who have thermometers. Well, I just taste the dough with my finger and if it is already warm, then I add it.

Lyudmila, thanks for the test info. I think it's all about flour (low gluten). The dough was not liquid, premium flour.

Lyudok, most likely your temperature regime was violated, not flour. I personally observed this myself, because the oven is gas and without a thermometer. In addition, it burns from below. Once I was so afraid that it would not turn out badly that the custards were almost without voids. It is called overdone.
ludok01
Zhivchik, maybe it's in the oven, I don't have it very much.So that I don't bake, I have to change the ends of the sheet (that is, turn it)

Natasha, thank you thank you thank you!!! This is a delicious cake! I have already dealt with choux pastry somehow, so everything turned out without problems. Only baked a little longer until golden brown.
I rarely bake cakes for some reason. But I will bake this cake many more times.

Drink sesame milk! We were told that it is great at discouraging sugar cravings (on my blog).

I saw it already. I'm going to study the theory of sesame cow milking. And you also need sweets - how am I going to count the numbers? And, in general, in the morning you can

P.S. When will I finally cook "Ladies' fingers"?

Katyun, I'm afraid this is also not quite what we need, there are our brothers-Sybarians, they will trample us with a nasty broom ... and they will be right ... we need to look for something else ...

no, after all, this recipe is a win-win! For a long time DP did not bake, she gathered here - and my hands immediately remembered :))) a wonderful in its simplicity recipe) I just would like some cream thicker :)
Summer resident
If you put a thickener in sour cream, it will be thicker, and the taste is traditional

but where can I get it?
Summer resident
The grocery store sells sour cream and cream thickener by Dr. Otter or another company in sachets. There are all sorts of spices. When I was in Russia I saw several options, but Otter is always and everywhere.
Netty
thank you very much! I'll try!

Here's my cake. True, the fingers were more childish than ladies')))) New cond. the bag was immediately spoiled and thrown away, the dough strove to crawl out through the seams))). Now, on the advice of one of the girls, I use a soft milk bag, it helps out great!
The last time I did it with frozen cherries, a pleasant sourness appeared. We are planning to try it with pineapple.

And this from a double portion turned out to be profiteroles with curd filling.

Thank you for the awesome cake recipe.

I want to too. Especially looking at the photo. But laziness for now. As laziness lets go - I'll do it and eat to the very top.

And for some reason my fingers did not rise very well, at first I made the temperature about 200 g, then reduced it ... It turned out something like this ... The dough turned out good, cooked with all the recommendations. We must further study the oven. But it didn't affect the taste - it's delicious! Thank you!

The problem was most likely the temperature. They need 200-220 degrees. if you put about 200, then after opening and loading the baking sheet, no more than 170 will remain there. So there was not enough heat. Well, nothing, the main thing is tasty, and some shortcomings can be taken into account next time.

And so I decided to hold a rehearsal by March 8! With such a detailed master class, it turned out just a class the first time! So by March 8 I will repeat.

This is done by male hands ?! Fuck, don't get up ...

But seriously, it seemed to me that these "ladies' fingers" are a win-win option for those who squint their hands a little ...
I sculpted these very fingers and put together whatever your heart desires, even exactly, even in a bunch. And everywhere there is cream and grated chocolate ... You look and there will be a holiday on March 8 on my street

So I prepared "Ladies fingers". Thanks for the detailed master class, it helped a lot. But still, I did not escape some difficulties .... First, I did not calculate the distance between the fingers, they rose so much that they all stuck together. Secondly, they stuck to the protrusion, despite the fact that I oiled it, ate tore it off, in the end they turned out with a hole in the middle. I covered the last baking sheet with baking paper and lightly greased with oil, and this last batch turned out to be the most correct. Here are my cakes, did a double portion.
