Cooking Directions

Puff Pastry
In medium saucepan, combine butter and water. Bring to boil over medium heat. Stir in flour, salt and sugar; cook, stirring constantly, until mixture leaves sides of pan in a smooth ball. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly. Add eggs one at a time, beating vigorously after each addition, until mixture is smooth and glossy. Stir in vanilla.

Preheat oven to 400°F/205°C. Using either a pasty bag or tablespoon, form the puffs on a greased cookie sheet. Using the back of a spoon, flatten any points. Makes 12 puff pastries. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until golden and crisp. Remove puffs from oven and cool on wire racks.

Pumpkin Filling
In a large chilled bowl combine whipped cream, sugar and pumpkin pie spice with chilled beaters until soft peaks form. Fold in 1 cup/250 mL canned pumpkin.

Maple-Caramel Sauce
In a small saucepan stir together brown sugar, corn starch, half-and-half, water, maple syrup, and butter. Cook and stir over medium heat until slightly thickened and bubbly. Cook and stir for 2 minutes or more. Remove from heat; stir in vanilla

Cut puff pastry in half, fill with pumpkin filling and top with caramel sauce.
