Morrisons Salted Caramel Profiterole Gateau, 900g (Frozen)

Product Information

While I had enjoyed simple cream puffs before, I had never had chocolate profiteroles like these. This easy profiterole dessert had been inspired by an experience I had at a classic French bistro near Place des Victoires. It was a picturesque restaurant in the 1st arr. and looked exactly like what you’d envision a French bistro to look like. While you may have seen choux pastry profiteroles in recipes like a profiteroles tower or profiteroles cake, this classic profiteroles recipe is distinguished by its indulgent profiterole filling of ice cream and topping, warm chocolate sauce. Baked a second time to dry out, the choux puffs are filled with either ice cream, whipped cream or pastry cream.

Piping Tips:Use a 1.3cm (½ inch) plain nozzleor Wilton 1A piping tip to pipe out the choux buns. At a pinch, fill a seal

Deluxe Free Range Bronze Broadland Crown, price tbc, 2-3kg. Traditional slow growing breed, reared outdoors in the heart of East Anglia. Availability TBC. The supermarket has more than doubled its range of Extra Special products this year, with 240 premium quality products across all categories in store. Due to Covid restrictions last year, many families were forced to cancel Christmas, so this year why not go the extra mile and put on a spread to impress. Some foods may lose some of their sparkle when frozen, so think about how you intend to use them. For example, soft cheeses such as brie or goats cheese which lose creaminess and become grainy, whilst harder cheeses will become crumbly and won't make for a star slice on the day.

After the storm that I had walked through that night to get to the restaurant, I felt like I deserved a sinfully good treat like profiteroles. Obviously, it was a fantastic choice as I haven’t been able to forget it. The cake is then filled with layers of fresh orange curd, chocolate sponge, blood orange caramel, and chocolate mousse.
