Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). In a medium saucepan, combine the butter, water, and salt. Bring to a boil over medium heat. Remove from heat and add the flour all at once. Stir until the mixture forms a ball.
-
Transfer the dough to a mixing bowl and let it cool for 5 minutes. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the peppermint extract.
-
Spoon the dough into a large pastry bag fitted with a large star tip. Pipe the dough in a ring shape onto a greased baking sheet. Bake for 25 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from the oven and let it cool completely.
-
In a mixing bowl, beat the heavy cream and powdered sugar until stiff peaks form. Cut the cooled puff ring in half horizontally. Fill the bottom half with the whipped cream mixture.
-
In a small saucepan, melt the chocolate and vegetable oil over low heat, stirring until smooth. Drizzle the chocolate glaze over the top of the cream-filled puff ring.
-
Place the top half of the puff ring on top of the cream and chocolate glaze. Let it rest for 30 minutes before serving.
-
Serve the peppermint cream-puff ring with chocolate glaze and enjoy!
