I love eclairs, but making the actual pastry is difficult. So I came up with this recipe as a substitute. It still satisfies my cravings with the same wonderful flavors. -Thelma Beam, Esbon, Kansas

The chocolate filling was a bit too thick for my taste. I'll try thinning it out with some milk next time.

The éclairs turned out a bit dry. I think I should have baked them for a few minutes less.

I had some trouble getting the éclairs to rise properly. I think I may have overmixed the batter.

These éclairs were delicious, but they were a bit too sweet for my taste. I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.
