Profiteroles with Cream Cheese Filling

Ingredients

Wheat Flour - 1 cup
Butter - 4.4 oz
Farm fresh eggs - 5 pieces
Water - 1 cup
Salt - ¼ teaspoon
Semi-soft cream cheese - 14.1 oz
Heavy cream - 8 fl oz
Powdered Sugar - 3.5 oz
Vanilla salt - 0.3 oz

Step by Step guide

Step 1

Prepare all the ingredients.

Step 2

In a saucepan with a thick bottom, pour in 1 cup of water (250 ml), add the butter and salt, and bring to a boil. As soon as the water boils and the butter melts, immediately add all the flour and cook for 2-3 minutes while constantly stirring.

Step 3

Remove from heat, stir, and let cool to warm. Add the eggs one by one, mixing thoroughly.

Step 4

Once the dough starts to stretch, stop adding eggs.

Step 5

Using a piping bag or a teaspoon, place the dough on a baking sheet lined with a silicone mat or parchment paper. Place the baking sheet in an oven preheated to 365°F. After 15 minutes, when the profiteroles rise and brown, reduce the temperature to 320°F. Do not open the oven door. Bake for another 25 minutes.

Step 6

Remove the profiteroles and place them to cool.

Step 7

Place the cream cheese in a bowl, mix with a mixer, add powdered sugar and vanilla sugar, and whip.

Step 8

Whip the chilled heavy cream with a mixer.

Step 9

Combine the cream cheese mixture and the whipped cream, gradually adding the cream to the cheese and gently folding the creamy mixture with a spatula using an upward motion.
