Profiteroles Recipe

Step 1: Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2: Boil Water and Butter

In a saucepan, combine water and butter and bring to a boil over medium heat.

Step 3: Add Flour and Salt

Once the mixture is boiling, add the flour and salt all at once. Stir vigorously until the dough pulls away from the sides of the pan.

Step 4: Add Eggs

Remove the pan from heat and let it cool slightly. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition until the dough is smooth and glossy.

Step 5: Pipe the Dough

Transfer the dough to a piping bag and pipe small mounds onto the prepared baking sheet.

Step 6: Bake

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the profiteroles are golden brown and puffed up. Let them cool.

Step 1: Heat the Cream

In a saucepan, heat the heavy cream over medium heat until it just begins to simmer.

Step 2: Add Chocolate

Remove from heat and add the chocolate chips, stirring until melted and smooth. Stir in vanilla extract.

Step 1: Fill the Profiteroles

Cut a small slit in the bottom of each profiterole and fill with vanilla ice cream using a spoon or piping bag.

Step 2: Serve

Drizzle warm chocolate sauce over the filled profiteroles and serve immediately.
