PUFFS OR ECLAIRS 1 stick (4 oz.) butter 1 c. water 1 c. unsifted flour 5 or 6 medium eggs Boil together the butter and water until the butter has melted. Add the flour all at once and stir for a few minutes over medium heat until the whole forms a ball of dough which leaves the sides of the pan. Turn out into a large bowl and beat in the eggs one by one, waiting until one is completely absorbed before adding the next. Form puffs or eclairs on a lightly greased cookie sheet and bake in a preheated oven at 475 degrees for about 10 minutes or until well risen and beginning to brown. Decrease the heat to 325 degrees and continue to bake approxi- mately 20 minutes or so. Remove from oven, slit so steam can escape. Cool and fill. Makes about one dozen.
