Ingredients
- 1 cup hot water
- ½ cup butter
- 1 tbs. sugar
- ½ tsp. salt
- 1 cup sifted flour
- 4 eggs
- 1 tsp. grated orange peel
- 1 tsp. grated lemon peel
Preparation
Step 1
Bring the water, butter, sugar, and salt to a boil. Add the flour all at once. Beat vigorously with a wooden spoon until the mixture leaves the sides of a pan, and forms a smooth ball- about 3 minutes. Remove mixture from heat. Quickly beat in the eggs, one at a time, beating until smooth after each addition. Continue beating until the mixture is smooth and glossy. Add the peel and mix thoroughly, and place the mixture in a pastry bag.
Bake at 450 degrees for 15 minutes, then lower the heat to 350 degrees and bake another 15 – 20 minutes or until golden in color.
