Instructions
On two lightly buttered 12- by 15-inch baking sheets, using a narrow spatula, shape 1/4-cup portions of Cream Puff Dough into hearts 3 inches across widest dimension and 3 inches long in the center. Make the V in the top of the hearts deep, since they lose definition as they bake (see notes).
Bake in a 375 regular or convection oven until puffs are golden, 25 to 35 minutes; if baking the sheets at the same time in one oven, switch their positions halfway through. With a wooden skewer, poke each puff in several places, then continue baking until golden brown, dry, and crisp, 5 to 8 minutes longer.
Transfer puffs to racks to cool completely.
Slice hearts in half horizontally. Set each base on a dessert plate and fill with Chocolate-Orange Cream.
Rinse and drain raspberries; pat dry. Distribute berries evenly over filling (save a few for garnish if desired). Set heart tops over berries.
Garnish with semisweet chocolate curls and sift powdered sugar or unsweetened cocoa lightly over the top.
