Grandma's Chocolate Eclairs

Grandma Evans Chocolate Éclairs

1 cup water

1 cube butter

1 tsp. salt

1 cup flour

4 eggs

(I usually double the recipe, and it makes about 34 éclairs)

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

Boil water, butter and salt. Add flour and stir over fire until it forms a ball of dough. Take off stove and add one egg at a time.   

Drop a heaping Tablespoon of dough onto a lightly greased pan. Leave room between each drop of dough. Bake 25 minutes. Do not under cook.

When éclairs are cooled, slit an opening  on the side of the éclair small enough to add vanilla pudding in the middle.  You can put vanilla pudding in a pastry bag or just spoon in the pudding into the éclairs.

Frost with chocolate frosting and refrigerate.
