  • 1 Saucepan
  • 1 Electric hand mixer or wooden spoon
  • 1 Pastry bag
  • 1 Baking sheet

Ingredients
  

  • 1 Cup Water or Milk or 1/2 cup of each
  • 1/2 Cup Butter cut into small pieces
  • 1 tbsp Sugar
  • 1/2 tsp Salt
  • 1 Cup Flour

Instructions
 

  • In saucepan, combine water, butter, sugar and salt and bring to a full boil on medium heat.
    Add flour all at once and stir vigorously with wooden spoon/electric hand mixer, until smooth THEN stir faster! The paste will then start to turn dry and not cling to spoon or sides of pan. *Don't overcook or over stir, or dough may fail to puff.
    Cool for 5-10 mins.
  • With hand mixer add 4 eggs, one at a time, ensuring paste is smooth and shiny before adding next egg.
  • Preheat oven to 400 degree Fahrenheit.
  • Use pastry bag or simply drop spoonfull of paste onto ungreased baking sheet.
    Before baking, lightly spray water overpuffs for light airy texture.
  • Bake 10 mins at 400, then reduce to 350degree Fahrenheit for 25 mins more until golden brown and very firm to touch.
  • Cool completely on rack.
  • Then fill with favorite cream and mixberries and dust tops with icing sugar.  Enjoy!
