Double Chocolate Profiteroles

These chocolate-flavored cream puffs are filled with a creamy white chocolate mousse. Add a fresh berry or sour cherry for a hidden tangy surprise.

Ingredients:

White Chocolate Mousse
1	cup heavy whipping cream, divided
4	ounces white chocolate, finely chopped
Profiteroles
1/2	cup plus 2 tablespoons flour
2	tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
3/4	cup water
3	tablespoons butter
1	tablespoon granulated sugar
1/4	teaspoon salt
3	eggs, lightly beaten
	Fresh blackberries, raspberries or sour cherries in syrup, drained (optional)
	Powdered sugar

1. For white chocolate mousse, place 1/2 cup of the cream in Small-Micro Cooker®. Microwave on HIGH 45 seconds. Pour hot cream over chocolate in Small Batter Bowl; stir until chocolate is melted and smooth. Stir in remaining 1/2 cup cream. Cover; refrigerate at least 3 hours or until mixture is well chilled. Whisk chilled mousse with Stainless Double Balloon Whisk until soft peaks form.
2. Meanwhile, for profiteroles, preheat oven to 375°F. Combine flour and cocoa powder in small bowl; set aside. Bring water, butter, granulated sugar and salt to a simmer over medium heat in (2-qt.) Saucepan. Add flour mixture all at once and stir vigorously until mixture leaves sides of pan and forms into a ball. Remove from heat; place dough in Classic Batter Bowl. Add eggs; whisk until smooth and very thick.
3. Lightly spray Deluxe Mini-Muffin Pan with vegetable oil. Attach open star tip to Easy Accent® Decorator; fill with dough. Pipe equal-sized rosettes of dough into wells of pan. Bake 28-30 minutes or until dough is puffed and tops are slightly cracked. Remove from oven and make a small cut in side of each puff to release steam. Remove from pan to cooling rack; cool completely. Cut off tops of puffs. If desired, place one berry into bottom of each puff. Fill each puff with mousse using Small Scoop; replace tops. Sprinkle lightly with powdered sugar; serve immediately.

Cook's Tips: Pipe batter into pan, filling wells about halfway. Use a wet fingertip to smooth top of rosette for a more even shape. Bake until puffs appear dry on surface and in cracks.

Venting the puffs by making a small cut in side will prevent them from deflating or becoming soggy. Use Bread Knife to slice tops off of cooled puffs.
