Profiteroles *sigh*. Need I say anything else, really?
1 recipe choux pastry
1 bag milk chocolate chips
1 cup whipping cream
3 tablespoons sugar
Directions:
1.) Slice tops off choux pastry and set aside.
2.) Create a double boiler by placing a large metal or glass bowl over a saucepan filled with an inch or two of water. Place the chocolate chips in the bowl, bring the water up to a boil, and melt chocolate chips while stirring regularly. When all chocolate is melted, turn heat off and leave chocolate in the bowl.
3.) In a separate large bowl, place the whipping cream and beat with a hand mixer until it forms stiff peaks. Beat in sugar.
4.) Spoon a bit of whipping cream into each piece of choux pastry, pressing down gently on the top to allow it to ooze out the sides a bit. Using a large spoon, drizzle or dollop the melted chocolate all over the filled choux pastry.
5.) Serve and enjoy!
