About this recipe

I only post recipes that I have tried and verified and are good to my taste — all taste may vary.

Bake until truly brown — pale choux collapses as it cools.

  3. 03

    Pipe walnut-size mounds and bake at 400°F 25–30 minutes until deep golden; pierce each and cool.

  4. 04

    Heat cream and syrup, pour over chocolate and stir smooth.
