75g<br />
butter, chopped<br />
1 cup water<br />
1 cup plain flour<br />
4 eggs<br />

4. Cover 5cm rack with baking paper and drop teaspoonfuls of mixture about 5cm apart.<br />
5. Bake in <strong>Nu</strong><strong>Wave</strong> oven, level 10, for 20 minutes, turning over after 10mins.<br />

7. Bake in <strong>Nu</strong><strong>Wave</strong> oven, on level 7, for a further 5 minutes to dry puffs out.<br />

Custard Cream<br />
2 level tbsp custard powder<br />
1 tbsp sugar<br />
1 cup milk<br />
1 tsp vanilla extract<br />
300ml carton double cream<br />
1 tbsp icing sugar<br />
1. Mix custard powder, sugar and enough of the milk to make a runny paste.<br />
2. Bring milk to the boil. Remove from heat and whisk in custard paste.<br />
3. Return to the heat and bring back to a simmer until thick (this custard will be thicker than normal as we are<br />
only using half the quantity of milk).<br />
