Ingredients:

For the choux pastry:
1/2 cup (125 ml) water
1/4 cup (60g) unsalted butter
1/2 teaspoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup (65g) all-purpose flour
2 large eggs

For the filling:
1 cup (240 ml) heavy cream
2 tablespoons powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
For the chocolate ganache:
1/2 cup (120 ml) heavy cream
4 ounces (115g) dark chocolate, chopped
White chocolate shavings, for garnish

Instructions:

Make the Choux Pastry:
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium saucepan, bring water, butter, sugar, and salt to a boil. Add flour all at once and stir vigorously with a wooden spoon until the mixture forms a smooth dough and pulls away from the sides of the pan.
Remove from heat and let cool for a few minutes. Beat in eggs one at a time until the mixture is smooth and glossy.
Spoon or pipe 12 small mounds of dough onto the prepared baking sheet.
Bake for 20 minutes or until puffed and golden. Turn off the oven, open the door slightly, and let the pastries cool completely in the oven to prevent collapsing.

Prepare the Cream Filling:
Whip the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form.
Once the pastries are cool, slice each one in half and fill with the whipped cream using a pastry bag.

Make the Chocolate Ganache:
Heat the cream in a small saucepan until it just begins to simmer. Remove from heat and add the chopped chocolate, letting it sit for a minute before stirring until smooth.
Dip the top of each filled profiterole into the ganache, or drizzle over the tops.

Garnish and Serve:
Sprinkle with white chocolate shavings for an extra touch of elegance.
