Category: Desserts
Ingredients:

Puffs:
1-1/2 cup flour
1/2 t. salt
1 T. sugar
In heavy pan bring to boil:
1-1/2 cup water
6 T. butter
Toffee:
Add 2/3 cup sugar
1/4 t. cream of tartar to
1 cup water
Chocolate Sauce: Chocolate Sauce:
Melt 2 cups chocolate bits

Preparation - Directions:

Add all flour mixture and stir. Soon it will be smooth. Remove from heat and add 5 to 6 eggs (at room temperature) one at a time. Form small rounds on greased cookie sheet with two teaspoons or 1/2 inch pastry tube. Bake 400° oven 30 minutes or until brown and firm. When done, prick with toothpick, cool in rack. Should make about 3 dozen.
Gently fold 1/2 cup powdered sugar, 2 T. chambord liqueur, 1/2 cup lightly mashed and drained raspberries into 1 pint (whipped) whipping cream. Fill the puffs using pastry tube or spoon.
Toffee: In heavy skillet, stir gently and bring to boil for about 10 to 15 minutes uncovered. It will thicken and turn a light gold. Remove from heat. Quickly dip bottoms of puffs and arrange them in heat-proof platter. Continue in a circle and form a pyramid (you can also make smaller individual servings). Drizzle with leftover toffee and some chocolate sauce. Refrigerate until ready to serve. Pass extra sauce.
