Cream Puffs

By: Nancy Davis

½ c. butter
1 c. water
1 c. flour
¼ t. salt
4 eggs

Directions:
In a saucepan, melt the butter in boiling water. Add the flour and salt all at once, stirring it vigorously. Cook and stir it until the mixture forms a ball that doesn’t separate. Remove it from the heat and cool it for 10 minutes. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating them for about 30 seconds after each addition, or until it’s smooth. Drop the batter by heaping tablespoons full, 3" apart, onto a greased baking sheet.
Bake at 400° for about 30 minutes, or until they are golden brown and puffy.
Remove them from the oven. Split them open removing any soft dough from the inside. Cool on a wire rack. Fill them with pudding, tuna salad or your favorite filling.
