Cherry clafoutis and Turkish profiteroles share milk, butter, eggs and cream, but put them to very different work. In the clafoutis, eggs whisked with sugar, milk and cream form a smooth, thin batter that is poured over fresh cherries and baked until puffed, golden and just set, then finished with a dusting of powdered sugar. The profiteroles divide the same staples across components: butter and eggs build golden choux puffs, while milk thickens into a vanilla pastry cream lightened with whipped cream, and everything is drizzled with a warm cocoa sauce. One is fruity and tender, the other layered and indulgent.
