Steps to make Wes Anderson-inspired Courtesan au Chocolat:
- For the choux buns:
- Bring the water, butter, salt and sugar to the boil. Remove from the heat and mix in the sifted flour. Return to the heat for a few minutes, quickly stirring and cook until the dough forms a single lump.
- Allow to cool enough to keep the eggs from cooking, and stir them in gradually using a strong wooden spoon.
- Transfer the dough to a piping bag and pipe into dollops, in three sizes - tablespoon, teaspoon, hazelnut - a dozen of each.
- Bake in a preheated oven at 180C for 25-35 minutes (the smaller buns will cook more quickly so check).
- Remove from the oven, make a small piercing in the bottom of each bun to allow steam to escape.
- For the chocolate creme patissiere:
- Heat the milk and add the chocolate, stir to melt.
- Whisk the egg yolks, flour, sugar, cocoa and cornstarch to a smooth mixture.
- Add half the hot chocolate to the bowl, a bit at a time, stirring all the time.
- Add this back to the rest of the hot milk, stirring over a gentle heat for a few minutes until thickened to a custard.
- Remove from heat and chill.
- Once cooled, spoon into a pastry bag and pipe into the centre of the large and medium pastry balls.
- To decorate:
- Sieve the icing sugar into a bowl, adding the vanilla and milk until you reach the desired consistency.
- Separate into three small bowls, and add food colouring: lavender (large buns), pale green (medium buns), and pink (small buns).
- Dip each pastry into the icing to its midline. Place on a tray and leave to dry.
- Decorate with filigree of white chocolate.
- Place a dollop of pale blue icing atop the large ball, place the medium on top and press to stick in place.
- Repeat with the small ball.
