Pastry Dough

Method

Making the Profiteroles

  1. 1

    Prepare the Choux Pastry

    In a saucepan, combine water, butter, and salt. Bring to a boil over medium heat, then remove from heat. Stir in flour until the mixture forms a ball. Let cool slightly, then beat in eggs one at a time until smooth.

  2. 2

    Pipe the Dough

    Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Transfer the dough to a piping bag and pipe small mounds (about 1 inch wide) onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

  3. 3

    Bake the Profiteroles

    Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown and puffed. Turn off the oven and let them sit inside for another 10 minutes to dry out.

  4. 4

    Cool and Fill

    Remove from the oven and let cool completely. Once cooled, make a small hole in the bottom of each profiterole and fill with your choice of cream, custard, or ice cream.
