Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Bisquick baking mix
- 1 half cup Butter (cold, cubed)
- 2 tablespoons Water
- 1 half cup Butter
- 1 cup Water
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 3 Eggs
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 cup Powdered sugar (for glaze)
- 2 tablespoons Milk (for glaze)
- 0.5 teaspoon Vanilla extract (for glaze)
- Optional toppings: chopped nuts, sliced almonds, or sprinkles
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup of Bisquick mix and 1/2 cup cold, cubed butter. Use a pastry cutter or fork to work the butter into the mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Add 2 tablespoons of water to the mixture and stir until a dough forms. Divide the dough into two equal portions.
On the prepared baking sheet, shape each portion of dough into a thin strip, roughly 12 inches long and 3 inches wide. Ensure there is some space between the strips.
In a medium saucepan, melt 1/2 cup butter over medium heat. Add 1 cup water and bring to a boil.
Turn heat to low and immediately stir in 1 cup of flour until the mixture forms a ball and pulls away from the sides of the pan.
Remove the pan from the heat. Beat in the eggs one at a time, fully incorporating each egg before adding the next. Stir in 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.
Spread the egg-based mixture evenly over both strips of Bisquick dough, ensuring the entire surface is covered.
Bake in the preheated oven for 45 to 50 minutes, or until the puffs are golden brown and crisp. Do not open the oven door while baking.
Once baked, remove the puffs from the oven and allow them to cool for at least 20 minutes. The center will sink slightly as they cool.
In a small bowl, whisk together 1 cup powdered sugar, 2 tablespoons milk, and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract to create a glaze.
Drizzle the glaze over the cooled puffs. Optionally, sprinkle with chopped nuts, sliced almonds, or sprinkles for added texture and flavor.
Slice into portions and serve. Enjoy your delicious Danish Puffs Bisquick!
