Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup water
  • 6 Tablespoons butter
  • pinch salt
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 1 cup flour
  • 4 eggs
  • whipped cream
  • chocolate sauce

Instructions
 

  • Put the water, butter, salt, and sugar in a saucepan. Bring to a boil. Take the saucepan off of the heat. Add the flour. Beat until everything comes together. Put back on the heat and beat vigorously until everything is off the sides of the pan. The dough will lump together and there will be a film on the bottom of the pan.
  • Put the mixture into the bowl of a mixer or a large bowl. Beat until it breaks up a little. Add eggs one at a time. It might seem like it is not going to come back together, but keep mixing, it will.Transfer the batter into a piping bag.
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Pipe drops onto the baking sheet. Moisten your finger with water to smooth out the peaks. You can brush them with egg wash if you are so inclined so they are shiny when they are baked.
  • Bake in a preheated 425 degree oven for 15 to 20 minutes. They will be golden brown and puffed.Slice the puffs in half and fill with whipped cream or ice cream.
  • Pour chocolate sauce over. Bon Appetit!
