Time 1h10m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 (3 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
4 tablespoons sugar, divided
2/3 cup chocolate hazelnut spread
1/4 cup heavy whipping cream
1/2 cup chopped hazelnuts or 1/2 cup pecans, toasted
1 cup all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons baking cocoa
1 cup water
1/2 cup butter
1/4 teaspoon salt
4 eggs
confectioners' sugar

Steps:

  • For filling, in a small mixing bowl, beat cream cheese and 2 tablespoons sugar until smooth. Gradually beat in hazelnut spread and cream until blended. Stir in nuts. Cover and refrigerate.
  • In a bowl, combine the flour, cocoa and remaining sugar. In a large saucepan, bring water, butter and salt to a boil. Add flour mixture all at once and stir until a smooth ball forms. Remove from the heat; let stand for 5 minutes. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Continue beating until mixture is smooth and shiny. Drop by rounded tablespoonfuls 2 inches apart onto greased baking sheets.
  • Bake at 400° for 20-25 minutes or until set and browned. Remove to wire racks. Immediately split puffs open; remove and discard soft dough from inside. Cool completely. Spoon filling into cream puffs; replace tops. Dust with confectioners' sugar. Refrigerate leftovers. Yield: 2 dozen.

The cream puffs were easy to make and turned out great! I used a store-bought chocolate hazelnut spread for the filling and it worked perfectly.

These cream puffs were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still very good. I would recommend using less sugar in the filling.

I've made cream puffs before, but this recipe was the best! The dough was easy to work with and the puffs turned out perfectly golden brown. The filling was also delicious and not too sweet.
