Best 12 Chocolate Glazed Raspberry Cream Puffs Recipes

SIMPLE RASPBERRY CREME PUFFS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper, or silicone mat.
• In a medium saucepan, combine water, butter, sugar and salt. Slowly heat the mixture over medium heat, stirring frequently to dissolve sugar and melt the butter. Once sugar is dissolved and butter is melted, increase the heat to medium high heat and bring the mixture to a boil.
• When the mixture is boiling, remove the saucepan from heat and add flour all at once. Quickly mix the mixture until all the flour is absorbed. (We just made panade!)
• Replace the saucepan back to burner and reduce the heat to medium. Cook the dough, continuously mixing with a wooden spoon. The dough will start to form into a ball. Keep mixing for another 3-4 minutes until light crust forms on the bottom of the pan. (Note: It's important to cook for at least 3-4 minutes to dry out the panade.)
• Transfer the dough into a mixing bowl with paddle attachment and mix it for a few minutes on low speed until the mixture is at room temperature, about 2 minutes. (No mixer? No problem. You can mix it with a wooden spoon!)
• Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. This will help to get egg absorbed into the dough quicker. Don't add more than 2 eggs at a time! This is important, as you might not need to add all the eggs. The dough should be smooth and shiny, thin enough to slowly fall into a ribbon, but too runny. (Read more details in this post!)
• At this point choux pastry is done and ready to be piped into whatever size you want. Uncooked dough can also be refrigerated for up to 3 days in an airtight container.
• Transfer the batter into a pastry bag and pipe into 1.5-inch rounds couple inches apart. Level peaked tops with a wet fingertip.
• Bake for 25-30 minutes, one baking sheet at a time. The pastry shells should be golden brown, crispy and puffed up. (Note: If the creme puffs go flat as they come out of the oven, it means they are slightly undercooked and needs to be bake a bit longer. Simply put them back in the oven and bake for a few more minutes.) Transfer the shells onto a cooling rack to cool completely.
• To make raspberry whipped cream, pour cold heavy whipping cream in a mixing bowl with whisk attachment.
• Beat the cream on low speed (speed 2 or 4 on stand mixer) until slightly thickens.
• Add raspberry jelly. Continue to mix on medium speed (speed 4) for a minute or two. You can increase the speed to 6 on stand mixer until the mixture reaches hard peaks. Keep a close eye on it, you don't want to over-beat it, or it'll turn into sweet butter. Transfer the filling into a pastry bag fitted with a piping tip of your choice. (I used Wilton here.)
• To assemble, using a sharp pairing knife, slice top of each creme puff horizontally. You don't have to cut all the way through.
• Pipe the filling into each pastry shell and place the top of the creme puffs back.
• Arrange the filled creme puffs on a platter and dust with powdered sugar and serve.

• 8. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the puffs are dry and golden brown.
• 9. Allow them to cool to room temperature.
• 10. To make the cream filling, place the pudding and milk into your stand mixer and beat on high for 3-4 minutes. Make sure to scrape the bottom of the bowl several times to make sure that the dry pudding mix doesn't get stuck to the bottom of your bowl.
• 11. Allow the pudding to sit for a few minutes. It will continue to thicken up for you.
• 12. Take a serrated knife and cut each of the cream puffs in half.
• 13. Spoon the cream filling into the bottom half of each cream puff, then top with the other half.
• 14. To make the chocolate glaze, place the chocolate chips and cream in a glass measuring cup. Heat in 30 second intervals, stirring after each one until the chocolate is smooth and silky.
• 15. Add the vanilla and salt and stir well. All the mixture to sit for 3-4 minutes.

RASPBERRY CREAM PUFFS

Steps:

• For the cream puffs: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Put the butter, granulated sugar, salt and 3/4 cup water in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil over medium heat. As soon as it boils, take off the heat and add the flour. Mix vigorously with a wooden spoon until the mixtures comes together and pulls away from the sides of the pan, about 1 minute. Transfer the mixture to a large bowl. Beat with an electric mixer at medium speed until slightly cooled. Add the eggs 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. After adding the last egg, beat on medium speed for 1 minute. Use a 1 1/2-inch cookie scoop to place rounds about 1/2 inch apart onto the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake the cream puffs for 10 minutes, then reduce the oven temperature to 325 degrees F and continue to bake until golden brown and hollow-sounding when tapped, 20 to 25 minutes. Transfer to a rack and cool completely, then use a serrated knife to cut the puffs in half.
• For the filling: Beat the cream, mascarpone and confectioners' sugar with an electric mixer at medium-high speed until it just holds stiff peaks, then gently fold in the jam.
• When ready to serve, use a large spoon to dollop the cream on the bottom half of the puffs and add 1 raspberry to each. Then top with the other half of the puff.
