White Chocolate and Raspberry Cream Puffs
These white chocolate and raspberry cream puffs are a refined pastry, combining the lightness of whipped ganache with the refreshing acidity of raspberries. Perfect for an elegant dessert, they will charm your guests with their crispiness and creaminess. Preparation requires a bit of patience: the ganache must rest for at least 4 hours (ideally overnight) to then be whipped into a light and airy texture. The choux pastry, made with a mixture of water, milk, butter, and flour, is then baked at 180°C to obtain well-risen and golden shells. Assembly, with a piping bag, allows for generous filling before decorating with fresh raspberries and powdered sugar. For an extra touch, add a drizzle of melted white chocolate. By following these steps, you will obtain delightfully airy puffs, filled with a melting ganache and juicy raspberries. Serve them fresh for an unforgettable dessert that combines the sweetness of white chocolate and the freshness of red fruits.

Fill each puff with the whipped ganache, add 1-2 raspberries in the center, cover with more ganache, replace the top and dust with powdered sugar.
- For crispier puffs, add a craquelin before baking: mix 30 g of soft butter, 40 g of sugar and 50 g of flour, roll out thinly, cut out discs and place them on the puffs. You can also replace raspberries with other red fruits or add orange zest to the ganache. Store the elements separately and assemble at the last moment.
