    | 1. Place the butter and the water in a saucepan. Bring the water to the boil and stir until the butter has melted. Remove from the stove. | 2. Stir in the sifted flour. Add the flour all at once. Beat until smoth. | 3. Return to the heat, and stir vigourously until the mixture leaves the sides of the saucepan and forms a smooth ball. | 4. Allow the mixture to cool slightly. | 5. Whisk the eggs well and then add them to the choux ball. Beat the eggs into the mixture. | 6. Use a piping bag to pipe 7-10 cm lengths for eclairs, or place in spoonfuls onto greased cookie trays for cream puffs or profiteroles. | 7. Bake in a hot oven - 220°C for 10 minutes. Reduce the heat to 200°C and continue to cook for 15 to 20 minutes, or until golden and crisp. | 8. Turn the oven off. | 9. Remove from the oven and immediately make a small slit in the side of each puff to allow the steam to escape. Return to the oven for a few minutes to help dry them out. The oven has already been turned off. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
