How To Make cream puffs and eclairs ~ sooo good
-
Step 1Sift Flour, measure and set aside, slice UNSALTED Butter into small patties and set aside, using a small dish fork whip the eggs and set aside.
-
Step 2Now Preheat your oven to 400 degrees and get a cookie sheet pan ready and grease with Butter and set aside.
-
Step 3Using a non stick med sized pot, pour in your Water and turn heat up to medium and add butter patties. Bring to a rolling boil.
-
Step 4Now add all your Flour at once and quickly stir off the heat. Keep stirring about 1-2 min. A ball will form and now set the pot aside for a min or two to cool OFF THE HEAT. While warm but not hot add the whipped eggs and stir. I use a mixer on med for a minute or two till its uniform and lumps are gone. Mixture will look real soft and blended.
-
Step 5Now using a large spoon make piles of dough. This will make 8 - 10 medium shells. Place in hot oven for 35-40 min till light golden brown.
-
Step 6When done remove pan on cool surface. Sprinkle generously with powder sugar. Poke a small hole but no more than half way with a knife carefully through the top of each just one time just enough to puncture top of shell. This helps cooling.

Step 710-15 min your ready to carefully cut horizontally in half, fill with fresh whipped cream, optional chocolate drizzle and ENJOY!
