Ingredients:
- 1 cup water
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 4 large eggs
- 1/4 cup cocoa powder
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
- 1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- A pinch of salt
Instructions:
Set the oven temperature to 400F 200C
Bring the butter and water to a boil in a saucepan
Stir continuously until the mixture forms a ball after adding the flour and cocoa powder
Take it off the stove and give it some time to cool
One egg at a time, adding and thoroughly mixing after each addition
Forming tiny mounds, spoon the dough onto a baking sheet
Puffs should be baked for 20 to 25 minutes, or until golden and puffy
Heat the cream until it's hot but not boiling to make the chocolate ganache while the puffs cool
Stir until smooth after pouring hot cream over chocolate chips and letting it sit for a minute
Pour in the vanilla extract and a small pinch of salt, then allow the ganache to come to room temperature
Split the cream puffs in half lengthwise and stuff each half with whipped cream
Sprinkle with powdered sugar and drizzle with the chocolate ganache
Enjoy and serve right away!
