Total estimated time: 1 hour 15 minutes
In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the water, milk, butter, sugar, and salt. Bring to a boil. Remove from heat and add the flour all at once, stirring vigorously with a wooden spoon until a smooth dough forms and pulls away from the sides of the pan. Return to heat for 1-2 minutes, stirring continuously to cook off any excess moisture. Transfer the dough to a mixing bowl and let it cool slightly.
Using an electric mixer, beat the dough while adding the eggs one at a time, ensuring each is fully incorporated before adding the next. The dough should be smooth, shiny, and hold a peak when the mixer is lifted.
Preheat the oven to 220°C (425°F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Fill a piping bag fitted with a large round tip with the choux dough. Pipe small mounds (about 5cm or 2 inches in diameter) onto the baking sheet, leaving space between each puff. Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes, then reduce the temperature to 190°C (375°F) and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes until golden brown and crisp. Let them cool on a wire rack.
In a mixing bowl, whisk the heavy cream with the sugar and vanilla extract until soft peaks form. Gently fold in the shredded coconut and optional coconut milk. Fill a clean piping bag with the coconut cream.
Once the puffs are cool, make a small hole in the bottom of each or slice them in half. Pipe the coconut cream into the center of each puff. Alternatively, you can slice the puffs in half horizontally and fill them like a sandwich.
Dust the filled puffs with powdered sugar and sprinkle toasted coconut flakes on top. Serve immediately and luxuriate in the delightful textures and flavors of your homemade Coconut Cream Puffs.
