Cream Puffs

I love cream puffs.
I really do.
And I made some on this past Tuesday.
They were amazing. :)

Here's the recipe:

Puffs:
1 cup water
1 stick butter
1 cup flour
4 eggs
Heat water and butter to a rolling boil. Then add flower until it balls up. take off of heat and beat in the eggs one at a time.
Drop them on a pan sprayed with nonstick cooking oil (this size: http://www.ioffer.com/i/3-inch-diameter-circle-cut-out-12337318).
Cook on 400 for 18 or so minutes, or until golden brown.
After they're done, cool them and then cut off the tops. Take out the extra dough, fill with the cream, and replace the tops. Glaze them with awesome chocolate sauce. :)

Cream Filling:
1/2 pint whipping cream
1 cup milk
1 box instant vanilla pudding
Whip until it's thick.

Chocolate Glaze:
1/2 stick butter
2 Tbs cocoa
2 Tbs milk.
Heat until melted and stir in 2 cups of powdered sugar until melted as well. When glazing cream puffs, dip a fork in the glaze and then shake back and forth over the cream puffs.
Makes about 24.

Yay for food!
