I am going through a choux pastry phase at the moment. I have just about got over Gregg's comment on our profiterole task (another one that wasn't shown - probably because we all did so badly) that my profiteroles looked like hippos in mud. Lovely. Anyway these are a little more dainty!

White chocolate and raspberry profiteroles

50g butter

150ml cold water

60g plain flour

2 tsp vanilla sugar (or caster sugar if you don't have vanilla sugar)

2 eggs beaten

100 g white chocolate, melted

284ml double cream

1 punnet of fresh raspberries, lightly crushed with a fork

Pre heat the oven to 180oC/350F/gas 4. Melt the butter in the water in a pan and bring to the boil. Remove from the heat and quickly throw in the flour and sugar and beat with a wooden spoon until a smooth dough is formed which leaves the sides of the pan. Add the egg a little at a time, beating really hard after each addition. You should end up with a smooth glossy dough. Grease a baking tray with butter and place small teaspoons of mixture a distance apart. Place the tray in the oven (Aga roasting oven bottom shelf) and pour a small amount of water onto the oven floor. This will create steam which will help the buns to rise. Bake for approximately 15 minutes until they are golden brown. Remove the tray from the oven and pierce each profiterole with a knife to release the steam. Dip a fork in the melted white chocolate and "spin" over the tops of the profiteroles. This will create a nice white chocolate pattern on each. Leave to cool until the chocolate has set. Whisk the cream until stiff peak and fold in the raspberries. Place the cream in a piping bag and pipe into each profiterole. Pile the profiteroles high on a plate, dust with icing sugar and serve.
