Benjamina Ebuehi’s mint choc chip choux buns recipe | The sweet spot

A crack of the brittle choux shell mimics the snap of an ice-cream cone, and reveals the mint choc chip cream inside

Mint choc chip is the best ice-cream flavour ever – and I won’t hear otherwise! It’s the perfect balance of creamy and refreshing, and the chocolate chunks make for such a texturally pleasing mouthful – no holiday is complete without a couple of scoops. These choux buns are a celebration of my love for the flavour. The crisp craquelin shell, meanwhile, almost mimics the flavour of an ice-cream cone and never fails to transport me to sunnier days.
