Kims Cream Puffs Anyone Can Make

Ingredients:
1 stick butter or margerine
1C. water
1 C. flour
4 eggs
1/2 tsp. salt (optional)
Directions:
Boil water and butter in a saucepan. Add flour and salt, stir well until mixture leaves sides of your pan. Mix well until blended (supposed to be by hand but you probably could use a real low setting on your hand mixer). Remove from heat, add one egg at a time to mixture and beat with hand mixer until all 4 eggs have been added.. The mix should turn yellow, be sticky and creamy-like. Drop batter by tablespoon in oblong (approx. 1"wide x2 "long) onto a cookie sheet. Bake at 350-375  until light brown or 50 minutes.Let cool. They will be soggy inside that is okay. Cut in half crosswise and fill with your choice of filling and frost if desired.
