cup butter
1 cup boiling water

Melt butter in boiling water. Add flour and salt all at one time, stir vigorously. Cook, stirring
constantly until the mixture forms a ball that doesn’t separate. Remove from heat and cool slightly.
Add eggs one at a time, beating hard after each addition until mixture is smooth. Using your
selected cookie disc, form cream puffs 2" in diameter and 2" apart on greased cookie sheets. Hold
