Ingredients

1 cup water

1 cup flour (subtract 2 ½ tbsp after measuring the cup)

60 grams butter

3 tbsp cocoa powder

5 large eggs

1 tsp Vanilla powder

Filling:

4 eggs white

½ tsp cream of tartar or 1 tsp lemon juice

125 grams sugar

Melted chocolate for glaze

Directions

Preheat oven to 400 F, grease two large cookie sheets lightly.

Mix the flour and cocoa powder and set aside.

In a heavy saucepan over medium heat, bring butter and water to a running boil.

Pour the flour mixture all in one go and stir using a wooden spoon till it form a

Ball shape. Turn the dough on a clean bowl and cool for 15 minutes.

Mix in the eggs one at a time stirring well after each addition. Add the vanilla and stir

Again.

Fill the dough in a piping bag fitted with a nozzle of the shape you desire (I used star and

Rounded nozzle as I made profiteroles and éclairs shape)

Pipe the dough on the cookie sheets and bake for 30 minutes till risen and puffed.

Turn the oven off and take them out .Cut them in half horizontally and

Return them in the warm oven while you prepare the filling. We want them

To be completely dried from inside.

Filling:

In a clean bowl, beat the egg whites till frothy, add the cream of tartar or lemon juice

And beat till soft peaks form. Add the sugar gradually and beat till shiny and glossy

And stiff peaks forms.

Fill in a piping bag fitted with star nozzle and pipe rosettes over the bottom

Half of each peace. Cover with the top half.

Using a flame torsche, carefully heat from the side till golden brown. Glaze

With melted chocolate.

I think you should change you profile to "Master Chef" as you are much better than many that state that they are "Master Chef's"
I have saved this too!

Another wonderful idea (and recipe), Ahmed!!! I'd probably add a drop or two of lemon extract to the white frosting just for a hint of surprise in the flavor. Thanks for this divine recipe.

Hi Ahmed...Don't know what happened but submitted a comment and it disapeared? sorry if this turns up twice...lol
I made this recipe lastnight,but changed the filling to a rich chocolate mousse for something different and topped with a dark chocolate gnache...if I do chocolate I like to go all the way...lol...Loved your ecclair recipe,and will try your filling next time I make these again very soon! I too am a huge fan of profiteroles and usauly make them instead of ecclairs,but this recipe has me converted...keep coming up with the great ideas...I want to try more...Happy days!

Genius! Sheer genius!! I agree with Vivian, you do need to upgrade your designation to Master Chef! AND, get your recipes published!! Much better than most of cook books in the store, and we're all getting them for free! (Hmmm, maybe I should rethink this...) OK, so keep posting here, but for those folks who don't know about Group Recipes, let 'em pay for your recipes!! LOL
