Chocolate Covered Strawberry Cream Puffs image

A scrumptious pastry bite filled with fresh strawberry cream and topped with rich chocolate. Indulgent, but not difficult to make!

Provided by Our Best Bites (Pate a choux from barbarabakes.com)

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 15

3/4 cup all-purpose flour
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into chunks
1 teaspoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
3 large eggs, room temperature
1 egg
1 teaspoon water
1 teaspoon unflavored gelatin (like Knox, found near Jell-o in the baking aisle)
4 teaspoons cold water
1 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup powdered sugar (more or less to taste)
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup freeze-dried strawberries
4 ounces (by weight) semi-sweet chocolate
1/2 cup heavy whipping cream

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425°. Lightly grease baking sheets or line with parchment paper. Measure flour and set aside.
  • Bring butter, sugar, salt, and 3/4 cup water to a boil in a 3-qt. saucepan over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally. Immediately remove from heat, and quickly stir in flour mixture all at once. Return to heat and stir with a wooden spoon for 1 to 2 minutes, or until dough is smooth and forms a ball. (Don't short-change this step or your dough may be too soft to pipe.) Transfer dough to the bowl of an electric mixer, and let cool 5 minutes.
  • Add 3 eggs, 1 at a time, beating until mixture is smooth and glossy. Spoon dough into a pastry bag fitted with a 5/8-inch plain tip. Pipe dough onto prepared pans into 1 1/2-inch rounds (1 1/2 inches high). Smooth out peaks and round tops with a moistened finger.
  • Whisk together remaining 1 egg and 1 tsp. water. Brush tops of dough with egg mixture.
  • Bake at 425° for 5 minutes; reduce oven temperature to 375°, and bake 30 minutes or until puffy and golden brown. Turn oven off; let shells stand in closed oven 10 minutes. Remove from baking sheets to wire racks, and cool completely.
  • Place cold water in small bowl and sprinkle gelatin over it. Let sit for 5 minutes. While it's sitting, place heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla in the bowl of a stand mixer with the whisk attachment or in a mixing bowl if using an electric beater. Once gelatin is set, place bowl in microwave and heat until gelatin turns to liquid, about 5-10 seconds.
  • Turn mixer on to start beating cream. Let it run for about 1 minute and then with the mixer on high, very slowly pour the melted gelatin in, in a small steady stream.
  • Continue beating cream until you reach medium-stiff peaks. Place berries in a plastic bag and crush with hands into small pieces. Add to whipped cream and beat for an additional 30 seconds until well mixed.
  • When pastry shells are completely full, fill using one of the methods outlined in blog post.
  • Heat 1/2 cup heavy cream in microwave until steaming. Pour over chocolate in a heat safe bowl and let sit for 2-3 minutes. Whisk to combine until completely smooth. Sauce will be thinner when hot and thicken as it cools. Drizzle over tops of filled cream puffs, or dunk in bowl.

Cute Cream Puffs Recipe by Tasty image

Here's what you need: dark chocolate, unsalted butter, water, milk, granulated sugar, salt, all-purpose flour, large eggs, egg, heavy cream, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, small piping bag, large piping bags

Provided by Julie Klink

Categories     Desserts

Yield 10 cream puffs

Number Of Ingredients 14

¼ cup dark chocolate, melted
½ cup unsalted butter, 1 stick
½ cup water
½ cup milk
3 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup all-purpose flour
4 large eggs
1 egg, beaten, for egg wash
2 cups heavy cream
3 tablespoons powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 small piping bag, or zip-top bag
2 large piping bags, or zip-top bags with standard round tips

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425˚F (220˚C). Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Chill a large bowl in the freezer.
  • Add the melted chocolate to a small piping bag or zip-top bag and cut ⅛ inch (3 mm) off the tip of the bag.
  • Pipe 10 sets of ears, eyes, noses, mouths, and paws onto 1 of the parchment-lined baking sheets. Chill in the refrigerator until ready to use.
  • Make the puffs: in a medium pot, bring the butter, water, milk, sugar, and salt to a boil over high heat.
  • Once the liquid begins to boil, remove the pot from the heat and immediately add the flour, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon until the liquid is absorbed and the mixture begins to form a ball.
  • Return the pot to the heat and cook for another 30 seconds to remove excess moisture. Remove the pot from the heat. Working quickly, add the eggs one at a time, stirring until each one is fully incorporated before adding the next. Continue stirring until the dough starts to pull away from the sides of the pan and is thick and glossy. Transfer the batter to a piping bag or zip-top bag fitted with a round tip.
  • Pipe 1-inch (2-cm) dollops of batter on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them at least 1-inch (2-cm) apart.
  • Dip a fingertip in the egg wash and gently press down any points, then brush the egg wash lightly all over the puffs.
  • Bake for 10 minutes. Reduce the oven temperature to 350˚F (180˚C), and continue to bake for 20 minutes more, until golden brown.
  • Transfer the puffs to a wire rack and cool until able to handle. Cut the tops off of the puffs with a serrated knife. Let cool completely.
  • Make the whipped cream: add the heavy cream and powdered sugar to the chilled bowl and beat with an electric hand mixer or whisk until stiff peaks form. Transfer the whipped cream to a piping bag or zip-top bag fitted with a round tip.
  • Pipe mounds of whipped cream into the puffs. Add the tops of the puffs and decorate with the chocolate faces.
  • Enjoy!

Time 45m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 9

½ cup water
¼ cup unsalted butter
1 pinch salt
½ cup all-purpose flour
2 large eggs
½ cup cold whipping cream
1 teaspoon white sugar
12 large strawberries, hulled
1 tablespoon powdered sugar, or to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Place a mixing bowl in the freezer.
  • Combine water, butter, and salt in a saucepan; bring to a boil.
  • Remove from the heat and immediately add flour; quickly beat in the flour with a wooden spoon, alternating between pressing on the dough and beating it quickly. Continue until dough has formed a ball and no longer sticks to the side of the pan.
  • Add 1 egg, and using the same technique above, beat it in until dough has reached a smooth consistency. Repeat with the second egg. Beat until dough begins to break into strands, about 5 more minutes.
  • Divide dough into 12 pieces. Round each piece and place 2 inches apart on an ungreased baking sheet.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until puffed up and browned, about 20 minutes. Remove and cool on a wire rack.
  • Meanwhile, pour cold cream into the chilled mixing bowl. Add white sugar and beat with a hand mixer until light and fluffy.
  • Slice across the tops of the cooled cream puffs just enough to open; they will be hollow inside. Put a heaping tablespoon whipped cream in the top and bottom cavities. Put a strawberry in the middle and close the two halves. Set on a plate and dust with powdered sugar.

STRAWBERRY CREAM PUFFS



Strawberry Cream Puffs image

Lots of people think cream puffs are difficult to make-but I've never had these fail me! By now, I can't remember whether I came across this recipe somewhere or made it up myself. I began cooking quite young, and strawberry Cream Puffs were always a favorite of my younger sister. She lives in California now...I make them whenever she visits! My husband's diversified farmer with an emphasis on farrow-to-finish hogs. We have three children (5 years, 3 years and 6 months).

Tips:

  • Mise en place: Before you start baking, make sure you have all your ingredients and equipment ready. This will help you stay organized and avoid any scrambling.
  • Use fresh strawberries: Fresh strawberries have the best flavor and texture. If you can't find fresh strawberries, you can use frozen strawberries that have been thawed and drained.
  • Don't overfill the cream puffs: The cream puffs will rise as they bake, so don't fill them too full. Otherwise, the cream will overflow and make a mess.
  • Bake the cream puffs until they are golden brown: The cream puffs should be baked until they are golden brown. This will give them a crispy exterior and a creamy interior.
  • Let the cream puffs cool completely before filling them: The cream puffs need to cool completely before you fill them. Otherwise, the filling will melt and make the cream puffs soggy.
  • Use a piping bag to fill the cream puffs: A piping bag is the easiest way to fill the cream puffs. It will help you get a smooth, even filling.
  • Chill the cream puffs before serving: The cream puffs should be chilled before serving. This will help the filling set and make the cream puffs more delicious.

Conclusion:

Chocolate strawberry cream puffs are a delicious and elegant dessert that is perfect for any occasion. They are made with a choux pastry shell that is filled with a creamy strawberry filling and topped with a chocolate ganache.
