I Heart Desserts!

As requested, here is the recipe for this delicious monstrosity. It's super easy (duh, it came from me, right?) and super yummy.

Eclair Ring Dough

1C. water
1/2 C. butter
1 C. flour
4 eggs

Heat water and butter to rolling boil. Stir in flour all at once over low heat. Stir until ball is formed. Cool for 10 minutes. Beat in eggs, one at a time, with mixer. (I did this by hand plenty of times before I got my big fancy mixer. It's a sticky dough so it's difficult, but I have faith in you!) Spoon on cool pizza pan to form circular shape with hole in the middle, like a large donut. Bake 45 - 50 minutes at 400* or until golden brown. Cool away from drafts. (I guess that is to prevent it from deflating, but mine always deflates and tastes just as good. It's worth a try though, I guess.) When cool, split horizontally and pull out remaining doughy stuff. Fill with . . .

Filling

2 (3 oz.) pkgs. instant vanilla pudding
2-1/2 C. Milk
1 tsp. vanilla
1 (8 oz.) carton Cool Whip

Mix pudding, milk and vanilla. Allow to thicken, then fold in Cool Whip. Spoon into bottom half of eclair, then put top back on. Drizzle hot fudge ice cream topping all over the top. (The more the merrier, in my humble opinion.) Thanks to my Aunt Jackie for introducing us all to this most delicious dessert.

  2. I didn't ask for the recipe out loud because I probably had to go and make my dinner of macaroni and cheese, but I did look at it and think, "I need to make one of those." Wish me luck!
