Danish Puffs

I enjoy making these, they really aren't that difficult and look so good.  Fill these with either a pudding or whipping cream and glaze with the icing of your choice.

1/3 cup butter
200 ml water
1 cup flour
2 to 3 eggs

Preheat oven to 350F.  Bring butter and water to a boil in a medium saucepan.  Add flour; stir vigorously until mixture leaves side of pan.  Cool slightly.  Beat in eggs, one at a time.  Place small rounds of dough on greased baking sheet (use 2 tsp or a pastry bag).  Bake on middle rack until golden brown, 20 to 30 minutes (do not open oven door the first 15 minutes or the dough will collapse). Make a slit in each to allow the steam to escape.  Cool on a rack.  Pipe some filling in each and top with icing sugar or glaze.
