Profiteroles (Base for Pastries)

Ingredients

Milk - 1 cup
Butter - 2.3 oz
Salt - a pinch
Sugar - 1 teaspoon
Wheat Flour - 3.5 oz
Chocolate eggs - 3 pieces

Step by Step guide

Step 1

Add salt to the milk, bring to a boil, add pieces of butter, and bring to a boil again. As soon as the milk boils, add all the flour and stir well with a spoon to avoid lumps, then reduce the heat and continue stirring the mixture until it thickens and becomes glossy. Remove the dough from the heat and immediately beat in the eggs one at a time, stirring continuously until the mixture becomes elastic. The finished dough should spread slightly.

Step 2

Using a teaspoon, place profiteroles the size of a quail egg onto a greased baking sheet dusted with a thin layer of flour. Bake in the middle of the oven at 392°F until golden brown. Cut the tops off the finished profiteroles or slice them in half.
