Eclairs With A Mocha Cream - Thermador PROFESSIONAL Series Recipes

ECLAIRS WITH A
MOCHA CREAM
INGREDIENTS
6 oz. water
2 tbsp. + 1 tsp. butter
1 tsp. vanilla
1 pinch salt
¾
cup flour
2 medium eggs
Filling
¾
cup whipping cream
½
1 tsp. instant coffee powder
1 – 2 tsp. sugar
Coffee Glaze
¾
cup powdered sugar
1 – 2 tsp. instant coffee powder
1 tsp. rum
Bring the water, butter, vanilla and salt to the boil in a saucepan. Remove from the
heat. Add the flour all at once and stir in well. Reduce the heat and continue to
stir the dough over medium heat until it comes away from the bottom of the pan.
Remove the pan from the heat, and add the eggs, one at a time, mixing thoroughly
after each.
Line the baking pan with parchment paper. Put the dough into a piping bag with
a large star-shaped nozzle. Pipe out finger-length strips, leaving space in between.
Start close to the edge, as the eclairs rise very well in the steam. Bake the eclairs as
indicated until golden brown.
Immediately after baking, slice open the eclairs with a serrated knife and leave
to cool.
To make the filling, beat the cream, coffee powder and powdered sugar until stiff
and spoon into a piping bag.
To make the glaze, stir together the sugar, 1 tsp. of hot water, the coffee powder
and rum. Spread over the top half of each eclair.
Pipe the filling into the bottom half and replace the top.
