How to make cream puffs:

Start heating the oven to 375°. Bring water, butter and salt to boil. Add flour all at once, then beat over low heat until mixture leaves sides of pan and forms a compact ball. Remove from the heat; continue beating to cool mixture slightly, about 2 minutes. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. After last egg has been added, beat until mixture has a satinlike sheen. Drop 5 or 6 mounds of batter 2 inches apart, swirling top of each mound.

Bake until well browned and puffy, about 50 minutes. Remove from oven; immediately cut 1 or 2 slits in side of each puff; return to oven for 10 minutes. Cool on cake rack.

To serve, split cream puffs almost all the way around. Or, slice off top of each. Fill with pudding or fill with ice cream. Replace tops and top with fruit.
