Remove from heat. 2 Add flour. Return to heat. Beat vigorously with a wooden spoon until mixture thickens, leaves side of pan and forms a ball. Remove from heat. 3 Add eggs one at a time, and beat constantly until eggs are fully incorporated (this was the hardest part for me, since the dough was pretty hard adding eggs makes it runny, just so you know) 4 Put the dough in a ziploc bag, snipping off a small corner, and pipe small lines on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper 5 Bake immediately at 400 degrees until light, puffy and golden, about 25 minutes. DO NOT open the oven door during baking, or they will not puff%21 (even if they don''t, they still work ok) 6 Let cool, uncovered, on rack. 7 Make the pudding according to directions. Whip cream and fold into vanilla pudding. Just poke a hole in the end of the puffs, and pipe the cream mixture inside. 8 For the glaze, ,in a double boiler, ,melt chocolate and butter over low heat. Drizzle chocolate over puffs. Let cool. Serve. 9 Because of the pudding, you need to refrigerate any leftovers.
