To make the profiteroles

Pre-heat the oven to 200 degrees C.

In a saucepan, melt the butter, sugar and water and bring to the boil. Add this mixture to a food processor along with the flour and mix until combined. Allow the mixture to cool for ten minutes.

Meanwhile whisk the eggs together in a jug and slowly add to the food processor, mixing until the dough is white and creamy.

Using a tea spoon, scoop the mixture out onto a baking tray and bake for 15 minutes until the profiteroles are risen and golden. Allow the profiteroles to cool on a wire rack before decorating.

Once cooled cut a hole in the side of each profiterole ready to fill with cream. Whip the double cream until thick. I did this in the food processor to save time. Spoon 1tsp of the cream into each profiterole.

Melt the white chocolate in a bowl over hot water. Carefully dip the top of each profiterole into the chocolate and place back on the wire rack to allow to cool. Sprinkle on extra icing sugar, glitter or snowflake decorations to complete the look. I found the profiteroles tasted better after a few hours chilling in the fridge.

    Mmm these look really tasty! Often Christmas pudding can be a bit much after an epic roast too!
