Ingredients

Servings: 25
  • 250 g Dark chocolate
  • 50 g Milk chocolate
  • 400 g Whipped cream
  • 50 ml Milk
  • 35 g Butter or margarine
  • 1/2 package Vanillin sugar
  • 1 pinch Salt
  • 75 g Flour
  • 6 g Cocoa powder
  • 2 Eggs (size M)
  • 10 g Coconut oil
  • 25 g white couverture
  • baking paper
  • 1 Disposable piping bag

Directions

  1. 1

    Coarsely chop 200 g dark chocolate and milk chocolate. Heat 350 g cream in a saucepan and remove from the heat. Dissolve the chocolate in it while stirring until an even, smooth chocolate mass is formed. Put the mixture into a mixing bowl, let it cool down and put it in a cool place for about 2 hours

  2. 2

    Bring milk, fat, vanillin sugar and salt to the boil in a small pot. Mix the flour and cocoa, add to the pot at once and stir with a stirring spoon until the mixture conglomerates into a lump and a skin forms at the bottom of the pot. Pour the dough into a mixing bowl and stir in the eggs one by one with the dough hooks of the hand mixer. Let dough rest for about 20 minutes

  3. 3

    Place the grid on the bottom of the oven and place a flat, ovenproof dish with hot water on top. Put the choux pastry in a piping bag with a large perforated spout (14 mm Ø). Spray approx. 25 tuffs just under the size of a walnut onto a baking tray lined with baking paper. Bake in a preheated oven (electric cooker: 200 °C/ convection oven: 175 °C/ gas: level 3) for approx. 20 minutes. Cut open the cream puffs and let them cool down

  4. 4

    Whip the chocolate cream with the whisk of the hand mixer until creamy. Pour into a piping bag with a large star-shaped spout and fill the sliced cream puffs with the chocolate cream. Chill for about 20 minutes

  5. 5

    Coarsely chop 50 g dark chocolate and melt it together with 50 g cream and coconut fat in a small pot at low heat while stirring. Let it cool down a little bit. Coarsely chop the white chocolate coating and melt it over a warm water bath and put it in a disposable piping bag. Cut off a small corner. Put a small blob of dark chocolate icing on each cream puff and decorate with some white couverture. Chill again briefly
