Melt chocolate at 70% power in the microwave. Stir to melt all the chocolate chips. Add the cream in slowly and stir until completely combined. The ganache should be thin, so if you need to add more cream, add in a teaspoon at a time.
Cut puffs in half along the lower third of the puff.
Place a small scoop of ice cream onto the pull.
Dip the top half into the ganache and place on top of the ice cream.
Serve immediately or return to the freezer until ready to serve.

1/2 cup water
2 large eggs, lightly beaten

Place water and butter into a saucepan. Turn the stove on to a medium heat and make sure that the butter completely melts before the water starts to boil. Once the water starts to boil, turn off the stove and add in the flour mixture and stir with a wooden spoon.

Place your dough ball into another bowl and continue mixing it to release the heat. Once the dough has cooled to lukewarm temperature, add in the eggs. The eggs will cause the dough ball to fall apart, just keep stirring it until it combines again and falls in a ribbon off the spoon.
Measure out 1 tablespoon sized dough balls and place onto a cookie sheet lined with a silicon mat.
Brush the tops of the puffs with the egg wash.
Bake for 15 minutes.
Reduce heat to 350 degrees F and continue baking for 30 to 35 minutes.Turn off heat.
Remove the puffs from the oven and pierce the left and right sides with a sharp knife. Place the puffs back into the oven with the door cracked open and allow the puffs to slowly cool to room temperature.
