Cream Puffs

By:
Helen (Heath) Jorgenson
This will make 6 large Puffs, or 35 one inch Puffs.
Sift before measuring:
1/2 c. All-purpose Flour
Heat:
1/2 c. Milk (or water)
Add:
1/4 c. Butter
Bring these ingredients to the boiling point.
Add the Flour, & 1/8 tsp. Salt.
Cook and stir the batter
until it leaves the sides of the pan,
and forms a ball.
Remove it from the fire.
Beat in, one at a time;
2 Eggs
Be careful to beat 1 Egg until well blended,
before adding the other.
Mix thoroughly.
Place spoonfuls of Batter in 2 inch rounds on a
greased cookie = 20 sheet,
heaping them well in the center.
Allow 2 inches between the Puffs.
Bake in a hot oven
at 400 for 30 minutes. Then reduce the heat to 350 .
Bake 5 minutes longer.
Test the Puffs by
removing one from the oven.
If it dose not fall, it is thoroughly done.
When cool, cut a gash in the side
of each Puff and fill with
sweetened flavored Whipped Cream.
