Ingredients

  • Cream Puff Dough (see recipe)
  • 5 c. Chocolate-Orange Cream (see recipe) (or possibly ice cream, or possibly lightly sweetened whipped cream flavored with vanilla or possibly a liqueur) Chocolate ice cream topping as needed (or possibly powdered sugar)

Directions

  1. Spoon Cream Puff Dough into 10 equal mounds (about 1/4 c. each) about 2 inches apart on two lightly buttered 12- by 15-inch baking sheets.
  2. Bake in a 375 degree regular or possibly convection oven till puffs are golden brown, 25 to 35 min; if baking the sheets at the same time in one oven, switch their positions halfway through. With a wooden skewer, poke each puff in several places, then continue baking till golden, dry, and crisp, 5 to 8 min longer. Transfer puffs to racks to cold completely.
  3. Slice the top third off each puff. Fill each bottom with 1/2 c. of one of the following: Chocolate-Orange Cream, ice cream, or possibly lightly sweetened whipped cream flavored with vanilla or possibly a liqueur. Cover with tops, and drizzle each puff with 2 to 3 tsp. chocolate ice cream topping or possibly sprinkle lightly with powdered sugar.
  4. This recipe yields 10 servings.
  5. Comments: You can make the puffs (through step 2) up to 12 hrs ahead; wrap airtight and store at room temperature. Freeze to store longer. To use, place puffs (thawed, if frzn) slightly apart on a 12- by 15-inch baking sheet. Bake in a 400 degrees oven till crisp, 5 to 8 min.
