1/2 c. sugar
1/3 c. flour
1/2 tsp. salt

CREAM PUFFS: Heat water and butter to a rolling boil in a pan. Stir in flour over low heat until mixture forms a ball. Remove from heat. Beat in eggs, one at a time, until smooth. Drop from a spoon onto an ungreased cookie sheet. Bake 45-50 minutes until golden brown. Let cool slowly away from drafts. Cut off tops, scoop out center and fill.

Stir in half of the mixture into the eggs. Blend that into the rest of the hot mixture in the pan. Bring it just to a boil. Cool and blend in vanilla. Fills 10 to 12 puffs.
