I made these following your recipe for a new years eve party at the house and they were totally a hit! However, we forgot to buy the evaporated milk so we just used chocolate icing & it was still amazing! Thanks for the recipe!

After removing from stove, add flour, and wait 5 minutes, before adding eggs one at the time, mixing eggs well, one at the time. Adding eggs to a hot mixture, cooks the eggs and prevents choux from rising. Eclairs and Choux are the same recipe for the shells. Heavy whipping cream can be beaten in a bowl with a little sugar and vanilla, to make the filling.

Cheryl, leaving the oven on for 15 minutes worked out perfectly. thanks for the tip :)

Thank you so much for your tip Cheryl, they came out perfect with only 15 minutes baking and I left them in the oven for an hour to cool off.

Thank you so very much, the recipe is perfect and I loveee this web site. The best recipe web site ever.

I mix with a wire whisk for maybe 2 minutes, only time I used hand mixer is when I had the runny problem.

I figured out what "cool out of draft" meant: It means turn the oven off but leave the door shut for an hour or two.

And my eclairs tended to scorch on the bottoms. Today I only left the oven on for 15 minutes after I put them in. They came out perfect!

Incidentally, mixing them on medium for about 20 minutes works for me.
