CARAMEL CRUNCH ECLAIRS WITH BURNT CARAMEL PASTRY CREME

That is a simply epic dessert. Pastry cream, burnt caramel flavor, gold leaf….chocolate…OMGawd! I have been seeing the a2 milk. I need to check it out!

this is stunning. No one does desserts like you do. I love eclairs, my Dad was an eclair fanatic so he raised us to have a serious appreciation for them. Which I have, in spades.

I’ve never tried a2 milk, I need to take a peek for it when I shop stateside this week. Great milk is so important, good to know there’s a company going above and beyond.

STUNNING! I love everything about these eclairs but that burnt caramel creme may be my favorite part! Serious show stopper 🙂

Holy cow! Those are seriously the best looking eclairs I have ever seen! And I will have to look for that milk because my daughter can’t handle much dairy.

I’ve been loving cream puffs, but still have yet to try eclairs with the choux pastry batter! This variation looks delicious. Dying over the burnt.

I think I need to come up with an eclair recipe for my blog so I can recipe test for weeks 🙂 Sounds like a fun challenge. These eclairs look incredibly delicious!

Ingredients:

Pate Choux (makes 28 4-inch eclair shells)

Burnt Caramel Creme (makes about 2 1/2 cups)

Chocolate Glaze

Directions:

To make eclair shells:

  1. Heat oven to 425 degrees F. Line two baking sheet with parchment paper. Fit pastry bag with 1/2 inch star tip (shells will crack less with a star tip vs round tip).
  2. In a medium saucepan, stir and cook, milk, water, butter, sugar and salt over medium heat. Once butter is melted, add flour all at once, using a sturdy spatula or wooden spoon, stir until streaks of flour is no longer visible. Now start vigorously stirring and the dough and smashing it agains the side of pan.
  3. The idea is to cook the moisture out of the dough. Dough is ready when it starts to pull away from side and a visible film is on the bottom of pan, about 3-5 minutes.
  4. Transfer mixture to a stand mixer bowl fitted with a paddle attachment and beat on low for 3 minutes to release the steam.
  5. Turn mixer to medium and beat in egg yolk one at a time, making sure each one is completely incorporated before adding the next one. Dough is ready when it is noticeably smooth, glossy and a bit stretchy.
  6. Transfer dough to a pastry bag. Pipe 4 inch long shells onto prepared baking sheet, make sure to space each one 2 inches apart. Bake 425 degrees F for 12 minutes, turn pan and drop heat to 350 degrees F and bake for another 10 minutes.
  7. Remove shells from oven and working quickly, slit tops of eclair 1/2 an inch long. Return shells to pan, transfer pan back to oven and let dry with door propped open, about 30-40 minutes.
  8. To make burnt caramel creme: In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup sugar and water, bring to a boil over medium heat. Brush down sides of pan with water as needed to prevent crystals from forming.
  9. Continue to boil for 8-10 minutes or until mixture turns a deep amber and just starts to smoke (the deeper the color, the more flavor). Remove pan from heat and immediately stir in milk (mixture will bubble and steam wildly, so be careful not to burn yourself).
  10. Return pan to low heat, cook and stir until smooth. Increase heat to medium. Let simmer about 1-2 minutes, remove from heat; set aside.
  11. In the meantime and in a large bowl, whisk together 4 tablespoons sugar and cornstarch. Add in egg yolks and whisk to combine. Add about 5 tablespoon, 1 tablespoon at a time, of hot caramel mixture into yolk mixture while stirring constantly (this will temper the eggs and prevent it from curdling.) Once eggs are tempered pour in remaining caramel mixture.
  12. Return mixture to pot, cook and stir over medium heat until thickened and comes just to a boil, about 3-5 minutes. Remove from heat, strain mixture. Stir in butter and vanilla paste. Let cool slightly and place plastic wrap directly on surface.
  13. The Burnt Caramel Creme can be made up to 2 days in advance. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use. Bring to room temperature on counter tip when ready to use.
  14. To make chocolate glaze: In a small saucepan, bring the cream ot just a boil over medium heat. Pour cream over chocolate and whisk until melted and smooth.
  15. Set aside and keep warm. The glaze can be made up to 2 days in advance. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use. Rewarm in a microwave when ready to use.
