This is another I got from Paula Deen. I am very happy with this recipe. Ingredients:
1 cup butter, room temperature |
2 cups sugar |
4 eggs |
3 cups sifted self rising flour |
1 cup milk |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
peanut butter icing |
1 (16-ounce) container chocolate icing |
2 tablespoons creamy peanut butter |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
2. Grease and flour cupcake cups and place them in muffin tins. Using an
3. electric mixer, cream the butter until fluffy. Add the sugar and continue to
4. cream for approximately 6 to 8 minutes. Add the eggs 1 at a time, beating
5. well after each addition. Add the flour and milk, alternating, into the
6. creamed mixture, beginning and ending with the flour. Add the vanilla and
7. continue to beat until well mixed. Divide the batter equally among the
8. cupcake papers. Level the batter by dropping muffin pan on counter top to
9. release the air bubbles. Bake for 25 to 35 minutes or until done. Cool in
10. pan for 5 to 10 minutes.
11. Using a small bowl, combine the chocolate frosting and the peanut butter and
12. blend well. When cupcakes have cooled, frost the tops with the peanut butter
13. icing.
14. With a serrated knife, slice pastry puffs lengthwise,
15. but not all the way through. Pipe custard mixture into the center.
16. Melt chocolate for icing, add sugar and cream.
17. Cook over medium heat until soft ball stage.
18. Let cool and beat until smooth. Ice tops of the eclairs.
19. This recipe yields approximately 12 large, 24 medium, or
20. 60 small eclairs.
