Serves: 6 servings

Preparation

 

Preheat oven to 400F.

 

Bring water and margarine to a boil in a saucepan. Add flour and stir vigorously until it forms a ball, about 1 minute. Remove from heat. Add eggs and beat until smooth (low speed of mixer) for about 2 minutes. Drop by tablespoon on to greased sheet pan. Smooth with spatula and bake until puffed and golden, 50 - 60 minutes. Let cool.

 

Cut the tops of the pastry puffs with a sharp knife and pull out any soft dough. Reserve tops.

 

Add milk, sour cream, pudding mix and almond extract to a small mixing bowl. Beat at low speed until blended, about 1 minute.

 

Fill pastry with pudding mixture. Spoon blueberries filling in pastries and replace tops. Top with more filling and sprinkle with fresh blueberries. Refrigerate until served.
