Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 1 cup water
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 4 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a medium saucepan, bring water and butter to a boil. Stir in flour and reduce heat to low. Stir vigorously until the mixture forms a ball, about 1 minute. Remove from heat and let cool for 5 minutes.
- Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition, until the dough is smooth and shiny.
- Drop dough by spoonfuls onto the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 30 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from oven and let cool completely.
- In a mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form. Cut the cooled puffs in half and fill with the whipped cream.
- In a small saucepan, melt the chopped chocolate over low heat, stirring constantly until smooth. Drizzle the chocolate over the filled cream puffs. Serve and enjoy!
