ready in:
30-60 minutes

ingredients

16 ounces water
8 ounces corn oil
10 ounces bread flour
7 eggs
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

directions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Combine the water and oil in a large saucepan and bring to a rolling boil. Mix in the flour and cook for 3-5 minutes, stirring constantly.

Place the flour mixture in a mixing bowl and beat with mixer on low speed. Slowly add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well to incorporate. Add the vanilla and continue to mix until smooth, about 2 more minutes.

Using a pastry bag with a wide tip, pipe the batter onto the parchment lined baking sheet. Alternately, spoon the batter into desired shapes.

Bake at 400 degrees F until golden brown and firm to the touch, about 20 minutes.

Let cool then slice off the tops and fill with desired fillings such as pastry cream, whipped cream, mousse, etc.
