Chop the chocolate coating. Melt 100 g cream, coconut oil and couverture over a warm water bath, stir until smooth, let cool down a little. Halve the choux pastry eggs. Mix vanillin sugar and cream thickener. Whip 650 g cream until stiff, allow the cream firming mixture to trickle in. Stir in egg liqueur briefly.
