i dont know if i royally screwed up or if this recipe has off quantities..i just attempted this and the eggs felt like a bit too much..and even though i poured them in VERY little at a time, it was still pretty runny for dough

theyre easy
first spread a lotttt of butter onto a big cookie sheet and sprinkle drops of water onto it. set it aside.
u take 3/4 c water and 1/3 cup butter with a pinch of salt and boil it in a pan..meanwhile get 3/4 c flour and 1.5 teaspons of sugar in a bowl and mix it together. when the water/butter boils then dump it into the bowl with the flour and stir with a wooden spoon until the dough comes away frm the sides of the bowl into a ball.
then u beat 3 eggs in a sep bowl with like 1/2 tsp of vanilla extract. after its beaten, slowly beat it into the dough with an electric beater. you have to be really careful not to mix it in too quickly, cuz this will make all the difference. mix about 1/3 of the egg at a time..dnt add more till the dough is completeeeeely mixed. yous hould end up mixing it with the electric beater for baout 10 minutes or so in this process(and ur arm will likely fall off shortly thereafter) once the dough becomes smooth and glossy, you put 1/8 c of dough onto the cookie sheet, about three inches away from eachother. make sure the dough is piled up on itself and not spread, otherwise u wont get a nice puff  bake it on 400 degrees for about 20 minutes.
cream filling and chocolate gaze..to be ocntinued...cuz im tired of typing now
