Deliciously filled cannons especially for Mate

Step by step

Preheat the oven to 180 ° C.
Roll out the puff pastry and cut it into rectangles of the desired size. The other option is to cut it into strips and place them around oven pipes (those that can withstand the heat of the oven).
Then, each cannon is spread with milk and rolled in brown sugar. Arrange on a suitable tray and bake for 10 minutes, or until golden brown. We remove the tubes and reserve.
Meanwhile, in a saucepan, we gradually add the egg, the 50 grams of sugar, the tablespoons of cornstarch, the vanilla essence and the milk.
Without stopping stirring, cook over medium heat for about 6 minutes. While it thickens and stir, add sheets of butter. Once the right consistency is reached, pour the cream into another container.
Once the pastry cream has cooled, it’s time to fill the cannons. You just have to transfer it to a casing and proceed with the filling. For both flavors, they can also be filled with dulce de leche.
Without a doubt, cannons are the best accompaniment to traditional mates! Don’t miss the opportunity to make them at home!
