Ice cream tucked inside golden choux, then a warm, silky sauce poured over until it runs down the sides: Maison Perrotte’s Hazelnut Spread, built on praline, gianduja and a thread of hazelnut oil, gives these profiteroles their generous finish.

Serves 4 · 10 min

  1. Split 12 store-bought unfilled cream puffs in half horizontally.
  2. Fill each with a small scoop of vanilla ice cream and put the tops back on.
  3. Gently warm 1/2 cup (150 g) of the hazelnut spread with 3 tbsp milk, stirring until smooth and pourable.
  4. Pour the warm sauce over the profiteroles and serve right away, sprinkled with chopped toasted hazelnuts.
