This Partridgeberry Gelato Profiteroles with White Chocolate Ganache Sauce is an idea that I’ve had for a while and decided to try it out for dessert tonight. Of course I had to put one together for a photograph. I had to eat it purely for the purpose of testing the recipe. 😉 I’m happy to report that it passed my stringent test criteria and will make an appearance at tonight’s supper table. Recipe for Partridgeberry Gelato is here.

For the profiterole shell pastry, combine add to a saucepan

1 cup water
½ cup butter

And bring to a boil. Reduce to medium flame and add, all at once

1 cup all purpose flour
¼ tsp salt

Cook this mixture stirring constantly for an additional 3 minutes. Allow this mixture to cool slightly for about 10 minutes before adding, one1 at a time

4 large or extra large eggs

Beat well after adding each egg until batter is smooth
Cover and chill thoroughly in the refrigerator.

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

Drop by rounded teaspoonfuls (or pipe small mounds using a piping bag ) onto a lightly greased baking sheet.
Bake at 400 degrees F for 15 minutes, then reduce the heat to 375 degrees and bake for an additional 10 -15 minutes until the puffs are golden brown and do not collapse when removed from the oven. These should be uniformly golden all over with no pale sides. Cool completely.

Split the shells in half and fill them each with a scoop of Partridgeberry Gelato.
Replace the tops and serve with white chocolate ganache sauce:

White Chocolate Ganache Sauce:

In a small saucepan heat to scalding

1 cup whipping cream

Remove from heat and add
12 ounces white chocolate chopped in small pieces
(or about 2 cup of white chocolate chips)

Let stand 5 minutes then stir well until smooth. Allow the sauce to cool to just warm before serving.
