List of Ingredients
Pastry
1 cup water
1/2 cup unsalted butter
1 cup flour
4 eggs -- at room temperature
Cream filling:
2 cups milk
3/4 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons cornstarch
3 egg yolks
1 teaspoon vanilla
Preheat oven to 425.
Boil water and butter. Stir in the flour all at once and stir by hand until mixture forms a ball and doesn't stick to the sides of the pot.
Remove pot from the heat. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition (this part may be done in the food processor).
Drop from a spoon onto an ungreased cookie sheet and bake for 40 minutes. Slice in half, remove part of center, and fill with cream filling.
Cream filling: Cook all but the vanilla until thick, over medium heat. Add vanilla when the mixture has cooled. Serve plain or topped with powdered sugar or chocolate glaze. Recipe
