Instructions to make Eclair pastry:
- In a sauce pan, take milk, water, salt, sugar and butter.
- Stir and bring this to a boil. Switch off the flame.Then add the flour and stir quickly. A nice soft dough will be formed.
- Let it cool a bit. To cool it faster beat it with a hand mixer. Later add 1 egg at a time and beat well. After all the eggs have been added one by one, you'll see that a thick batter for the puff has been formed.
- Pour this batter into a piping bag without a nozzle. Make a cut of about an inch in the bag. Pipe out the batter in length on a lined tray. Bake these at 160° for about 30 minutes.
- Once the puffs are done let them cool completely.
- For the filling in a bowl take whipping cream and icing sugar. Beat this until thick peaks are formed.
- Transfer into a piping bag, then fill the puffs with the whipping cream.
- Now melt the dark chocolate, dip one part of puff in it. Then put some sprinkles on top.
