Notes
It is good to test a batch to make sure the temp and time are correct for your oven.
Do not place too many puffs on your cooking sheet, since this dough has a lot of moisture you do not want to overload your oven. If you do they will not rise properly.
When in a hurry, Hershey's syrup works perfectly in a pinch for a topping!
