Custard Cream Puffs

I finally made my first cream puffs last night. The crust was not as crispy as what i expected and the custard was too thick. But overall, the taste was fantastic! Better than what i bought from some bakeries (but of course not comparable to Beard Papa's puff, which is still my favourite!)
