Watch our step-by-step video to find out how to make choux pastry for perfect profiteroles and cream puffs. • Ingredients (Makes about 28): • 100g (3½oz) plain flour • 75g (3oz) butter • 2 large eggs, lightly beaten • 450ml (¾pint) double cream • 40g (1½oz) icing sugar • 200g (7oz) chocolate, melted • 1. Sift flour on to greaseproof paper. Fold paper as it will make it easier to add flour to pan. • 2. Put 225ml (8fl oz) cold water into a pan with the butter. Bring to boil, then quickly turn off heat and slide flour mixture off paper and into pan. Using a wooden spoon, beat mixture until it becomes thick and smooth and pulls away cleanly from side of pan. This should take just a few seconds. Allow to cool until just warm. • 3. Beat eggs into mixture, a little at a time, until smooth. At first, the mixture will seem as if it doesn't want to come together, but keep adding a little at a time and beating and it will mix in smoothly. • 4. Beat until mixture is thick, glossy and shiny. The mixture should drop off spoon reluctantly when tapped lightly on side of pan. You might not need all the egg. • 5. Choux pastry is classically used to make profiteroles. • 6. Line a baking sheet with baking parchment. Spoon mixture on to sheet using two teaspoons, or use a piping bag. • 7. Dampen a finger with a little water and dab down any points on dough and smooth them. • 8. Bake at 200°C (180°C fan) mark 6 for 25 to 30min, until golden brown. • 9. Remove from oven and make a pea-sized hole with a skewer on underside of each bun, to release any steam. Return buns to oven for 5min to dry out. • 10. Whip cream with icing sugar and use to fill a piping bag fitted with a 5mm (¼in) nozzle. Pipe sweetened whipped cream into choux buns, through hole made during baking. Fill buns until cream begins to almost squeeze out of hole.11 Melt chocolate in a bowl set over a pan of gently simmering water, then, dip profiteroles into melted chocolate, to coat tops. • Explore more recipes, kitchen and lifestyle hacks and subscribe to the Good Housekeeping channel here: https://bit.ly/2TM6CWC
