Time 1h10m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 (3 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
4 tablespoons sugar, divided
2/3 cup chocolate hazelnut spread
1/4 cup heavy whipping cream
1/2 cup chopped hazelnuts or 1/2 cup pecans, toasted
1 cup all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons baking cocoa
1 cup water
1/2 cup butter
1/4 teaspoon salt
4 eggs
confectioners' sugar

Steps:

  • For filling, in a small mixing bowl, beat cream cheese and 2 tablespoons sugar until smooth. Gradually beat in hazelnut spread and cream until blended. Stir in nuts. Cover and refrigerate.
  • In a bowl, combine the flour, cocoa and remaining sugar. In a large saucepan, bring water, butter and salt to a boil. Add flour mixture all at once and stir until a smooth ball forms. Remove from the heat; let stand for 5 minutes. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Continue beating until mixture is smooth and shiny. Drop by rounded tablespoonfuls 2 inches apart onto greased baking sheets.
  • Bake at 400° for 20-25 minutes or until set and browned. Remove to wire racks. Immediately split puffs open; remove and discard soft dough from inside. Cool completely. Spoon filling into cream puffs; replace tops. Dust with confectioners' sugar. Refrigerate leftovers. Yield: 2 dozen.
