I thought these cream puffs were just okay. The filling was a bit too salty for my taste and the puffs were a bit dry. I think I would have liked them better if I had used a different type of cheese in the filling.

These ham and egg cream puffs were delicious! The filling was creamy and flavorful, and the puffs were light and airy. I served them with a side of roasted vegetables and they were a perfect meal. I will definitely be making these again.

These cream puffs were a disappointment. The filling was bland and the puffs were tough. I followed the recipe exactly, but I don't think I'll be making these again.

These cream puffs were a bit too rich for my taste. The filling was very heavy and the puffs were a bit greasy. I think I would have liked them better if the filling had been lighter and the puffs had been baked instead of fried.

These cream puffs were a bit more work than I expected, but they were worth it. The filling was rich and decadent, and the puffs were flaky and golden brown. I served them with a side of vanilla ice cream and they were a perfect dessert.
