I, like you, am a chocolate fiend...and I really preferred the half of the batch that was vanilla éclairs. Of course, that did NOT stop me from eating more than a few of the chocolate on chocolate ones :) The four that turned out really are beautiful! They look scrumptious!

Maybe it had something to do with her steady diet of ramen growing up.........heh. I don’t know WHERE in the world this Ninja woman learned to love to cook.

I knew mine weren't done at the end of the 20 minutes so left them in until I was certain they were done. Definitely go with your instincts next time! The choux pastry itself was fabulous, though! Your éclairs do look fantastic, though!! I agree that the baking instructions for the éclairs are a bit dodgy.

I had the same issues you did. This looks great! Glad you had some good ones. I do think that underbaking was a problem brought about by the instructions. I had the same issues you did.

Yes, I am not sure what was up with that Choux recipe but I will stick with mine from now on, I know it works, I had a few do the same thing to me. But the ones that made it are fantastic! I wish my sink was that big for a nice water bath lol. hehe…I loved your blog it made me giggle =).
