Step-by-Step Instructions

1
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2
Roll out the puff pastry on a lightly floured surface to a thickness of about 1/8 inch. Cut out circles of pastry using a cookie cutter or the rim of a glass.
3
Place the pastry circles on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown.
4
Allow the pastry to cool completely on a wire rack. Meanwhile, melt the dark chocolate chips in a double boiler or in the microwave in 30-second increments, stirring between each interval until smooth.
5
In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Add the granulated sugar, orange zest, and orange extract, and whip until combined.
6
To assemble the cream puffs, split the cooled pastry in half horizontally using a serrated knife. Spoon a dollop of whipped cream into the bottom half of the pastry, followed by a drizzle of melted chocolate. Top with the top half of the pastry.
