Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1/2 C. of water
  • 2 Tbs. unsalted butter
  • 1/2 C + 1/2 Tbs. of all purpose flour
  • 2 eggs + 1 egg white
  • 1 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
  • 1 1/4 C. milk
  • 3 egg yolks (save the yolk from the egg whites used in the dough for one of them)
  • 1/4 C. granulated sugar
  • 2 1/2 Tbs. all-purpose flour
  • 2 1/2 Tbs.cornstarch
  • 1 tsp. vanilla extract (this is where you can play with the flavor a little if you'd like)
  • 6 oz. of semi-sweet chocolate (finely chopped)
  • 3/4 C. heavy cream

Instruction

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F; prepare your cupcake pan - you can either use baking cups or spray the pan with cooking spray. I chose not to use baking cups because I wanted to see everything and I wanted to be able to utilize the natural holes that occur in baking to fill the pastry with the cream.
