Recipe



Heat oven to 400º. Mix flour, cocoa and sugar. Heat water and margarine
in 3-quart saucepan to a rolling boil. Stir in flour mixture. Stir
vigorously over low heat until mixture forms a ball, about 1 minute.
Remove from heat. Beat in eggs; continue beating until smooth. Drop
dough by about 1/4 cupfuls 3 inches apart onto ungreased cookie sheet.
With spatula, shape each into finger 4 1/2 inches long and 1 1/2 inches
wide.

Bake until puffed and darker brown on top, 35 to 40 minutes; cool.

Cut off tops; pull out any filaments of soft dough. Fill eclairs with
Chocolate Cheese Filling; replace tops. Spread with Cocoa Glaze just
before serving. Refrigerate any remaining eclairs.

Chocolate Cheese Filling:
Heat chocolate chips in small heavy saucepan over low heat, stirring
occasionally, until melted; cool. Beat cream cheese, sugar, milk and
vanilla until smooth and creamy. Stir in chocolate. Beat whipping cream
in chilled bowl until soft peaks form. Fold in chocolate mixture.

Cocoa Glaze:
Mix powdered sugar and cocoa. Stir in milk until smooth. If necessary,
stir in additional milk, 1/2 teaspoon at a time, until of desired
consistency.
