Cream Puffs

The easiest cream puffs I've ever made..... and by far the best.

1 cube butter
1 Cup water
1/2 tsp salt
Bring to a boil. Take off heat and stir in 1 cup of flour. Let cool for 5 minutes.
Add 4 eggs, one at a time.
Spoon batter size you want onto pan.
Bake at 325 about 20 minutes, or until light golden brown.
Whip cream from carton till pretty stiff. Add sugar to taste. Add almond extract to taste, approx 1 tsp is good, make it a little strong.
Make two vanilla pudding mixes with 1/2 less the amount of milk. Let pudding set up. Mix whipping cream, and pudding together. Fill cream puffs with cream. You can also drizzle chocolate over the top.
Very good treats. Store in the refrigerator.
