Steps:
- Hot Fudge: Combine all ingredients except vanilla in a deep saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly until mixture comes to a full rolling boil. Boil briskly 3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat. Add vanilla. Serve hot. May be stored in refrigerator. To reheat, microwave on medium to pouring consistency. This topping is very close (albeit counterfeit) to Sanders Milk Chocolate Hot Fudge toppping and only to be used in extreme emergencies when you cannot get your hands on the original. Cream Puffs: Bring water and butter to a rolling boil. Stir in flour over low heat about 1 minute or until mixture forms ball. Remove from heat. Beat in eggs (1 or 2 at a time is easiest). Drop on ungreased baking sheet. (By teaspoons up to ¼ cup depending on size of puff desired). A rounded teaspoon is recommended for sandwich size as the puff up a lot. Bake at 400° F for 20 minutes for small to 40 minutes for large. May also shape into fingers for eclairs. These puffs taste like the ones that Sanders used. Make the large size. Cut off the tops, scoop in vanilla bean ice cream, put top back on, and drench with Sanders Milk Chocolate Hot Fudge.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 450°F.
- Line one baking sheet with a Silpat and a second one with parchment paper (or line both sheets with parchment if you don't have a Silpat). Set up a heavy-duty mixer with the paddle attachment.
- Combine the water, butter, sugar, and salt in a medium saucepan and bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat to medium, add the flour all at once, and stir rapidly with a stiff heatproof or wooden spoon until the dough pulls away from the sides of the pan and the bottom of the pan is clean, with no dough sticking to it. The dough should be glossy and smooth but still damp.
- Enough moisture must evaporate from the dough to allow it to absorb more fat when the eggs are added. Continue to stir for about 5 minutes, adjusting the heat as necessary to prevent the dough from coloring. A thin coating will form on the bottom and sides of the pan. When enough moisture has evaporated, steam will rise from the dough and there will be the nutty aroma of cooked flour.
- Immediately transfer the dough to the mixer bowl and mix for a few seconds to release some of the heat from the dough. With the mixer on medium speed, add 4 eggs, one at a time, beating until each egg is completely incorporated before adding the next one; scrape down the sides of the bowl as necessary. Turn off the machine. Lift some of the dough on a rubber spatula, then turn the spatula to let it run off: It should fall off the spatula very slowly; if it doesn't move at all or is very dry and falls off in one clump, beat in the additional egg.
- Place the dough in a pastry bag fitted with a 1/2-inch plain tip. Pipe 15 disks (this will give you 3 extras for testing) about 1 1/2 inches across and just under 1/2 inch thick on the Silpat-lined baking sheet, leaving about 1 1/2 inches between them, as they will expand when baked. Pipe the remainder on the other sheet. (You will have about 4 dozen in all.) Bake the 15 puffs for the recipe and freeze the ones on the second baking sheet until firm, then transfer to a freezer container and freeze for another time.
- Bake the puffs for 10 minutes, turn the sheet around, turn the oven down to 350°F, and bake 15 minutes more. Remove one puff and break it open: It should be hollow inside and not gooey or eggy; if it is still moist, return it to the oven and check in 5 minutes. Cool the puffs completely on the baking sheet. Store in an airtight container until serving time.
- To serve:
- Preheat the oven to 300°F.
- Warm the chocolate sauce in a double boiler or a microwave. Warm the profiteroles on a baking sheet in the oven.
- Split each profiterole in half and arrange 3 on each plate. Place a small scoop of ice cream in the bottom half of each profiterole and top with the lid. Spoon the sauce over.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, combine butter, sugar, salt and 1 cup water. Bring to a boil and quickly stir in the flour with a wooden spoon. Continue to stir until a film forms on the bottom of the pan.
- Remove from heat and transfer contents to a bowl to cool slightly, about 3 minutes. Add 4 eggs, one at a time, stirring vigorously to entirely incorporate egg after each addition.
- For the egg wash, whisk together the remaining egg with 1 tablespoon water. Set aside.
- Transfer the pate a choux to a large pastry bag fitted with a 5/8-inch plain tip. Pipe 1-1/2-inch rounds onto each prepared pan. Gently smooth the pointed peaks with a moistened finger, rounding tops to ensure even rising. Brush tops with reserved egg wash. Bake until puffs rise and are golden brown, about 30 minutes. Let cool on sheets on wire racks. Puffs can be stored at room temperature for up to 1 day.
- Transfer pastry cream to a pastry bag fitted with a 1/8-inch plain round tip. Insert the tip into the opening of each pastry, and pipe to fill with pastry cream. Serve immediately.

Tips:
- For a richer flavor, use whole milk instead of skim milk.
- To make the cream puffs ahead of time, bake them and let them cool completely. Then, store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days, or freeze them for up to 2 months.
- When you're ready to serve, fill the cream puffs with ice cream and hot fudge sauce. You can also top them with whipped cream, sprinkles, or chopped nuts.
- If you don't have a piping bag, you can use a spoon to drop the choux pastry onto the baking sheet.
- Make sure to preheat your oven before baking the cream puffs. This will help them to rise evenly.
- Don't open the oven door while the cream puffs are baking. This will cause them to fall.
- Let the cream puffs cool completely before filling them. This will help to prevent the ice cream from melting.
