Recette de PROFITEROLES A LA VANILLE par ALAIN DUCASSE

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).

In a saucepan, combine water and butter over medium heat until the butter melts.

Add flour and salt to the saucepan, stirring vigorously until the mixture forms a ball and pulls away from the sides.

Remove from heat and let cool for a few minutes.

Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition until the dough is smooth and glossy.

Spoon or pipe the dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, forming small mounds.

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown and puffed up.

Remove from the oven and let cool completely on a wire rack.

In a bowl, whip the heavy cream with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until soft peaks form.

Once the profiteroles are cool, cut a small slit in the side of each and fill with whipped cream.

Drizzle with chocolate ganache before serving.
