      Eggnog Eclairs

      1/2 cup water
      1/4 cup sweet butter
      1/2 cup sifted all-purpose flour
      1/2 tsp. salt
      2 eggs

      Eggnog Filling:

      2-1/2 Tbsp. cornstarch
      2 cups bottled eggnog
      1 Tbsp. Rum

      In a small saucepan, bring water and butter to a boil, stir until batter is melted. Add flour and salt all at once, and continue cooking, stirring constantly, until mixture forms a ball and no longer clings to side of saucepan.

      Remove from heat. Add 1 egg at a time and beat after each addition, continue beating until mixture has a silky sheen

      Place 1 Tbsp. of mixture on a greased baking sheet, spread into oblong shape until 4 inches repeat nine times. Bake at 400º for 30 minutes

      Cool. With a very sharp knife slice off tops, remove bits of soft dough from inside éclair shell. Fill with eggnog filling.
