Description
These cream-filled choux pastry buns, drizzled with chocolate sauce, make a deliciously decadent dessert.
Method
Step 1 of 16
Preheat the oven to 220°C. Line 2 large baking trays with parchment.
Step 2 of 16
Sift the flour into a large bowl, holding the sieve up high to aerate the flour.
Step 3 of 16
Put the butter and 150ml water into a small saucepan and heat gently until melted.
Step 4 of 16
Bring to a boil, remove from the heat, and tip in the flour all at once.
Step 5 of 16
Beat with a wooden spoon until smooth; the mixture should form a ball. Cool for 10 minutes.
Step 6 of 16
Gradually add the eggs, beating very well after each addition to incorporate.
Step 7 of 16
Continue adding the egg, little by little, to form a stiff, smooth, and shiny paste.
Step 8 of 16
Spoon the mixture into a piping bag fitted with a 1cm plain nozzle.
Step 9 of 16
Pipe walnut-sized rounds, set well apart. Bake for 20 minutes until risen and golden.
Step 10 of 16
Remove from the oven and slit the side of each bun to allow the steam to escape.
Step 11 of 16
Return to the oven for 2 minutes, to crisp, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 12 of 16
Before serving, pour 100ml cream into a pan and whip the rest until just peaking.
Step 13 of 16
Add the chocolate, butter, and syrup to the cream in the pan and heat gently until melted.
Step 14 of 16
Pile the whipped cream into a piping bag fitted with a 5mm star nozzle.
Step 15 of 16
Pipe cream into each bun. Open the buns and fill them with the cream.
Step 16 of 16
Arrange the buns on a serving plate or cake stand. Stir the sauce, pour it over, and serve immediately.
