Chocolate Cream Puffs

I got this recipe from our best bites...again....I need to branch out.

Ingredients
½ c. water
¼ c. butter
1/8 tsp. salt
½ c. flour
2 eggs

Ok so the first step is to preheat the oven to 400 degrees.

Combine water, salt and butter in a medium sauce pan and bring to a boil.

Remove from heat and add the flour all at once and stir until a large ball of dough forms.

Add one egg at a time and stir in completely before adding the second egg.

Put teaspoon sized drops of dough on an ungreased pan (they will expand). These were a little bigger and the cream puffs came out quite large.

Put in the over for 20-25 minutes, but make sure to check periodically to see if they are golden brown

Here is how to make the chocolate filling

Ingredients
1 tsp. unflavored gelatin
1 Tbsp. cold water
2 Tbsp. boiling water
½ c. sugar
¼ c. cocoa
1 c. cold whipping cream
1 tsp. vanilla extract

Sprinkle gelatin over  the cold water in a small bowl and let it stand 1 minute to soften.
Add the boiling water and stir until gelatin is completely dissolved and mixture is clear.
Let it cool slightly.
Stir together ½ c. sugar and ¼ c. cocoa in a medium bowl.
Add whipping cream and vanilla.
Beat at medium speed until stiff.
Pour in gelatin mixture and beat until well blended.
Refrigerate ½ hour and then spoon into icing bag in order to fill the pastry.
