Temperature

180 °C

Preheat your oven to 180°C, and line your rectangular baking tray with parchment paper.
In a pan, mix the water, sugar, butter and the vanilla extract together.
Bring to a boil.
When it boils, turn off the heat and add the Mix C Schär flour.
Mix the batter until it’s a smooth consistency.
Put the pan back on a low heat and cook the batter for approximately 3 minutes, mixing continuously with a spatula.
Transfer the batter to a bowl and let cool.
When it is cool, add the bicarbonate and baking powder, and mix.
Continue mixing and add one egg at a time until the batter is smooth.
Put the batter in a pastry bag and make balls (approximately 3 cm wide and 2cm high).
Bake in the oven for 10 minutes.
After this time, lower the temperature to 170°C and bake for another 20 minutes, or until they are golden brown.
Only take them out of the oven when they are golden brown, so they don’t collapse.
Melt the chocolate in a bain-marie.
Make a hole in the bottom of each Carolina and, with a pastry bag or a teaspoon, fill them with caramel and cover with melted bittersweet chocolate.
