Ingredients

1/2 cup water
4 Tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into pieces
1/2 cup gf flour
3 large eggs, at room temperature

For frosting:
6 ounces semi-sweet gf chocolate, chopped
1 cup créme fraiche (or cream)
1-1/2 cups sugar
6 Tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into pieces
1 teaspoon vanilla

Directions

Heat oven to 400° F. Position rack in the center of the oven. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a small saucepan combine water and butter. Bring to a boil over medium heat and add flour, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon until mixture is smooth. Remove from heat and keep stirring until mixture comes away from pan. Add 1 egg and stir until mixture becomes smooth again. Repeat with remaining 2 eggs. Place the batter in a pastry bag with a 1/2" tube hole and pipe mounds about 1" in diameter. Bake for 25 minutes, until golden. Let cool on a wire rack.

For frosting:
Bring creme fraiche or cream to a boil in a small saucepan. Remove from heat and add chocolate. Do not stir. Cover and let set for 10 minutes. Transfer to a food processor and add sugar, butter and vanilla. Process until smooth.
Spread frosting on tops of cookies.
