Ingredients

Servings: 14
  • 825 ml Milk
  • 1 pinch Salt
  • 100 g Butter
  • 200 g Flour
  • 4 Eggs (size M)
  • 175 g Dark chocolate
  • 1 1/2 packs Pudding powder "Vanilla Flavor"
  • 75 g Sugar
  • baking paper
  • 7-10 Tbsp Freezer bag

Directions

  1. 1

    Bring 125 ml milk, 125 ml water, salt and butter to the boil in a saucepan. Add the flour at once and stir with a mixing spoon until the dough separates as a lump from the bottom of the pot. Put the dough into a mixing bowl. Immediately stir in 1 egg with the dough hooks of the hand mixer. Let rest for 5-10 minutes. Then stir in the remaining eggs one by one.

    Pour the choux pastry into a piping bag with a large star-shaped spout (15 mm Ø) and squirt 14 strips (each approx. 10 cm long) onto a baking tray lined with baking paper. Fill an ovenproof dish with water and place on the bottom of the oven. Bake the eclairs in a preheated oven (electric cooker: 200 °C/ convection oven: 175 °C/ gas: level 3) for approx. 25 minutes. Remove the finished eclairs from the oven and let them cool down. In the meantime, finely chop 75 g chocolate. Stir pudding powder, sugar and approx. 100 ml milk until smooth. Boil up 600 ml milk. Stir in the pudding powder and let it simmer for at least 1 minute while stirring. Remove 1/4 of the pudding mass and mix with the chopped Sckokolade. Let cool off lukewarm while stirring occasionally. Cut the eclairs in half horizontally.
