Making Profiteroles: Step by Step Recipe
Making profiteroles may seem daunting, but with the right techniques, they are easy. Follow these steps to create the perfect Father’s Day dessert.
1. Preparing the Dough
- Add water and butter to a medium saucepan. Heat over medium heat until butter is completely melted.
- Once the butter has melted, add the flour all at once and stir quickly with a wooden spoon. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the dough comes together and separates from the pot.
- Remove the dough from the stove and let it cool for 10 minutes. Add the eggs one by one to the cooled dough. After adding each egg, mix well with a mixer or spatula. The dough should have a sticky and shiny consistency.
- Put the dough in a piping bag and squeeze walnut-sized balls onto a baking tray lined with baking paper. Don’t forget to leave space between them.
- Bake in a preheated oven at 200°C for 20-25 minutes until golden brown. Do not open the oven door during baking, otherwise the pastry may deflate.
2. Cream Making
- In a saucepan, mix the milk, flour, starch, granulated sugar and egg yolk with a whisk.
- Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until thickened. Once it starts to boil, add the vanilla extract and butter.
- Remove the cream from the heat and leave it to cool, covering it with cling film to prevent a skin from forming.
3. Prepare Chocolate Sauce
- Heat the cream in a saucepan, but do not boil.
- Break the dark chocolate into small pieces and add to the hot cream. Stir until the chocolate melts completely.
- You can add granulated sugar if desired. Let the sauce cool.
4. Assembling the Profiterole
- Cut the cooled dough balls in half horizontally or fill them with cream using a piping bag.
- Place the filled balls on the plate.
- Drizzle warm chocolate sauce over it. Garnish with pistachios, coconut or strawberry slices if desired.
Tips and Tricks
There are a few important points to consider when making profiteroles:
- Be patient when adding the eggs to the dough; do not add the next egg until each one is thoroughly incorporated.
