Buttercream Profiteroles




Oooooo! Variety...So, I made a decision to go a little "bigger" than usual with the Profiterole standards. I piped them about about, 1 1/2 x round. Almost like a mini - cupcake size. Ehhh, I wouldn't suggest it. I was just playing around and experiementing! But they sure did look delish. I forgot how much Choux dough expands in the oven :). I made a nutella buttercream (which is AMAZING!)..just added 1/2 cup nutella to an Italian Style buttercream (my favo.) and Presto! also, chocolate and vanilla..then filled those hollow flakey puffs up! Chocolate Glaze was then used for dipping my creations in and duseted with some Confect. Sugar! Next time I will make a soft base Ice cream (thanks to Jen! who got me an Ice cream attachment for my Kitchen Aid Mixer!!)and insert that into a smaller size profiterol! mm mm, bite sized goodness is what its allll about! Save over - indulging for another day :)
