Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
  2. In a medium saucepan, combine the white sugar, water, and butter. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally.

  4. Transfer the mixture to a large bowl and let it cool for about 10 minutes.
  5. Add the eggs one at a time, stirring until fully incorporated before adding the next egg.
  6. Spoon the batter onto the prepared baking sheet in small mounds, about 2 inches apart.
  7. In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar, all-purpose flour, melted butter, and ground cinnamon. Mix until fully combined.
  8. Sprinkle the craquelin topping over the choux pastry. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown.
