These amazing little French pastries are perfect for Valentines day or any time of the year.
Ingredients
1 cup water
¾ stick butter (3 ounces)
1/8 tsp salt
1 tbsp sugar
1 cup all purpose flour
1 cup eggs, approximately (about 4-5 eggs)
Icecream of your choice
Chocolate syrup of your choice
Instructions
1
Bring water to a boil with the butter, salt and sugar in a 5 quart saucepan.
2
As soon as the butter has melted, remove from heat and add the flour.
3
Stir until mixture comes together into a solid mass.
4
Place dough mass into a mixing bowl and add one egg at a time and incorporate completely.
5
Continue adding eggs until the pastry just holds it shape when lifted by a spoon.
6
Using a large table spoon, spoon pastry dough onto parchment lined baking sheets. I make them large enough so a dozen fits on the baking sheet. Bake in a preheated 400 degree oven until golden brown. Remove from the oven and let the cool completely.
7
Once the baked pastry shells have cooled completely, cut them in half and spoon your favorite ice cream into them and place the top back on.
8
Drizzle with chocolate sauce, serve and enjoy!
