Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Place water, salt and butter in a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Remove from heat and quickly add the flour. Mix immediately with a wooden spoon, set pan over medium heat and continue stirring until mixture forms a thick consistency and is no longer moist. Put mixture into a food processor and cool it down with a few turns. (The dough may break up but it will come together when the eggs are added in the next step.)
Beat the eggs with a fork until you see air bubbles. Set aside a tablespoon of egg for an eggwash.
Slowly add the beaten eggs to the food processor, processing every 5 seconds until the eggs are thoroughly mixed into the dough and texture is smooth and very fluffy.
Grease a cookie sheet or use a silpat liner. Place rounded mounds of dough (about 2 tablespoons each) 2 inches apart on the sheet. Brush eggwash on the tops. Bake in the preheated oven for 40 minutes until the dough is cooked and forms a browned puff. Let cool.
Carefully make a slice in the top of each puff; the slice should extend halfway through the center of the puff. Scoop out excess dough. Put 3 cups of truwhip into a bowl. Add 1 tablespoon of peppermint extract and mix thoroughly. Spoon truwhip into emptied puff shells. Refrigerate before serving.
Just before serving, melt chocolate and milk in a microwave-safe bowl for 30 seconds. Mix with a whisk until it reaches sauce consistency, adding a few drops more milk, - if necessary. Drizzle over chilled, filled creampuffs before serving.

Line muffin tin with baking cups. Sift flour and salt together, and set aside.
Take three tbsp. of sugar and set aside.
In a separate large bowl, mix egg yolks and 1/2 cup sugar and whip until fluffy with a mixer or eggbeater. Add 1 1/2 tbsp. boiling water and the vanilla. Fold in the flour mixture. Add a few drops of water if dry.
Using an electric mixer, whip egg whites to foam stage. Slowly add the 3 tablespoons of sugar and whip until stiff peaks form. Gently fold a third of the whites into the yolk batter a little at a time until the whites are thoroughly incorporated in the mixture. Place mixture in muffin cups and fill until the cups are ¾ full. Pans should not touch. Bake for 15 minutes until golden brown and center is firm to the touch. Let cool.
Once cool, fill a frosting bag with truwhip. Using a sharp fill tip, press the whipped topping into the center of cooled cupcake and squeeze gently, filling the center. Do not overfill. Top with more truwhip and a chocolate chip for garnish.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Line your baking sheet with the parchment paper and draw an 8 inch circle on the paper.
With your stand mixer [handheld would work fine too] beat the egg whites and salt until satiny peaks form. Beat in the sugar, a spoonful at a time, until the meringue is stiff and shiny [you should be able to form stiff peaks when you lift the mixer out of the meringue]. Sprinkle the cornstarch, vinegar, and vanilla into the meringue and fold in lightly.
Mound the meringue onto the baking sheet within the circle, flatten the top and smooth out the sides. Put in the oven and immediately reduce the temperature to 300 degrees. Cook for 1 ¾ hours. Turn off the oven and leave the pavlova in it to cool completely [if your oven is electric crack the door open when cooling]. Don’t be frustrated when you remove the meringue from the oven, it will fall a bit and should have a cracked exterior that hides the gooey marshmallow like interior. Once cool you can store in an airtight container for up too a week.
Combine all ingredients and refrigerate until ready to use. I usually let mine sit for at least 2 hours so the juices from the fruit come out and create a delicious syrupy concoction.
Combine all ingredients, using a folding motion so the whipped topping stays light an fluffy.
Once all your components are done simply mound the Blushed whip cream into the center of the meringue and top with the berry compote. It’s gorgeous as is but if you want to take it one step further you can top the whole thing with a nest of spun sugar [see recipe below].
1/2 cup white sugar
1/3 cup light karo syrup
Prep your work space by taping two wooden spoons [with the handles lightly oiled] to your countertop about 8‐12 inches apart with the handles facing out and overhanging the counter by 6‐7 inches. Cover the floor below the handles with newspaper.
In a medium sauce pan heat the karo syrup and sugar until it reaches 265 degrees and a light amber caramel develops — usually 5‐6 minutes. Insert your candy thermometer after 4 minutes so you can monitor the temperature. Once it has reached 265 degrees remove from heat and let cool until it reaches 150 degrees.
Take two forms with their backs side to side and string the caramel across the spoon handles so it forms whisper thin strings. If the caramel mixture becomes hard to work with simply place it back on the heat for a minute until it loosens back up.
Gather the strings lightly so it forms a nest and place in a cool, dry place until ready to use.
Candy Bar Cake
In a large mixing bowl, mix pudding according to package directions. Let set for five minutes in the refrigerator. Line the bottom of a 9x13 cake pan with the graham crackers.

Let set for five minutes and enjoy!
Mix all four ingredients together and press into a 9 x 13 pan. Bake at 350 for 10 minutes. Let cool.
