Step 1: Make the Choux Pastry
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) . Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium saucepan, combine the water, milk, butter, sugar, and salt. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the butter is melted and the mixture comes to a boil.
Remove from heat and immediately add the flour all at once. Stir vigorously with a wooden spoon until the dough comes together and forms a smooth ball.
Return the pan to low heat and cook the dough for 1–2 minutes , stirring constantly, to dry it out slightly. Transfer the dough to a mixing bowl and let it cool for 5 minutes.
