Pâte à Choux

Directions

1. Combine the milk, butter, granulated sugar, and salt in a saucepan over high heat and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium, add the sifted flour all at once, and stir well. Cook, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, until the dough begins to come away from the sides of the pan, about 5 minutes.
2. Transfer to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment and beat on medium speed until cooled to body temperature. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well and scraping down the bowl with a rubber spatula after each addition. Beat in the egg white until incorporated.
3. Shape and bake according to the finished recipe.
