Cream Puffs in my Cooking Class on Baking

I wanted to let you know about the dishes I will be preparing/teaching at the cooking lesson at Miele this Friday afternoon.
One of the dishes will be Profiteroles which are cream puffs filled with ice cream (or Tofutti if you are kosher and serving it with Turkey).

Let me know what you think. If you want to attend one of the classes, just let me know or cotact James at Miele, Jnorris@mieleusa.com .

Cream Puffs/Profiteroles

1-cup water
½ cup margarine or butter
2 teaspoons sugar
1/4-teaspoon salt
1 ½ cups sifted flour
4 large eggs

Vanilla ice cream or tofutti

Bring water margarine, sugar and salt to boil in a saucepan. Remove from heat and add flour all at once. Return to medium heat and stir (with wooden spoon) for about 40 seconds, until dough comes away from sides of saucepan and a film appears. Remove from heat. Add 2 eggs, beat with wooden spoon, then add 2 more eggs, beating until smooth. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

Grease and lightly flour cookie sheet. Spoon batter onto cookie sheet in big teaspoons. Bake at 375 degrees for 20 minutes. Lower heat to 350 degrees and bake for 10 more minutes. Let cool. The cookies will be hollow inside. Make a small cut in each and fill with ice cream or Tofutti.
