Ingredients:

4 eggs room temperature

½ cup water

½ cup whole milk

½ tsp salt

¾ tsp sugar 4 oz. unsalted butter

1 cup all-purpose flour

Directions:

To make the choux paste, start with preheating your oven to 400 degrees, you'll need it pretty soon. Then bring water, milk, salt, sugar and butter to a boil in a stainless steel saucepan. Once the mixture starts to boil, take it off of the heat and add flour. Mix with wooden spoon. Cook out flour for a few minutes, stirring constantly.

Once it's ready, put the dough in a mixer with the paddle attachment and stir for about a minute. Add eggs one at a time and beat dough until it's nice 'n smooth.

Using a small ice cream scoop, scoop dough and place on cookie sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake at 400 degrees for 12 minutes, then reduce oven heat to 325 degrees and cook for about 12-15 more minutes, or until puffs are golden and crispy on the outside.

Cut open and fill with a generous scoop of ice cream and drizzle with chocolate sauce. Wanna make some Tony's chocolate sauce too? We've got a bonus recipe for you below!
