Prepare the Profiteroles
-
Line two baking sheets with Gefen Easy Baking Parchment Paper.
-
Using an ice cream scooper, form 20 ice cream balls. Freeze on the first prepared baking sheet.
-
Preheat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit. In a saucepan over high heat, bring the margarine or butter and water to a boil and stir until margarine is completely melted.
-
Lower heat to medium and add flour while beating with a wooden spatula. The mixture should pull away from the sides of the pan and form a ball (about 30-40 seconds). Set aside and allow to cool for three to four minutes.
-
Transfer mixture to a bowl and add eggs, while beating with a mixer. Transfer mixture to a pastry bag or Ziploc bag with snipped corner.
-
Pipe 18-20 mounds 1 and 1/2 inches apart on the second prepared baking sheet (mounds should be 1 and 1/2 inches wide by 1 inch high).
-
Bake until golden brown and puffed, 23-25 minutes. Allow to cool.
To Prepare Chocolate Sauce
-
Heat sugar in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir until it begins to melt and caramelize.
-
Add whipped topping and chocolate, and whisk until melted. Stir in vanilla and rum. Keep warm and covered.
To Serve
-
Slice each profriterole mound in half horizontally.
-
Fill with a frozen scoop of ice cream and drizzle with a generous helping of warm chocolate sauce.
