This is a great recipe. It is very easy to make.
Dough
1 cup flour
1/2 cup butter (or 1 stick)
1 cup boiling water
4 eggs, unbeaten
Measure the flour and set aside. In a small pot, bring water to a boil, add butter and let come to a boil again. Reduce heat and add flour all at once, stirring rapidly. Cook and stir until mixture thickens and leaves the sides of the pan (about 2 minutes). Remove from heat, add eggs, one at a time, beating thoroughly after each. Then beat until the mixture looks satiny.
Cream Puff:
Use a pastry bag with 3/8" opening (for small cream puffs). Push out mixture unto an ungreased baking sheet, shaping into 1" mounds. Wet your finger and push down the crest on the top of each. Bake 425 until golden brown (about 15-20 minutes). Cool. Cut off the tops and add whipped cream or substitute and top with a sprinkle of powdered sugar.
