/4 Cup Cocoa powder  
Cup Powdered sugar  
Tablespoon Milk; up to 3  
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. In a saucepan, over high heat, whisk the  
butter and milk together, until all the butter has melted. Bring the liquid  
up to a boil. Whisk in the sugar. Combine the flour, baking powder and salt.  
Slowly stir in the flour mixture and continue to stir until the mixture  
forms a ball and pulls away from the sides of the pan. Remove from the heat  
and turn into the bowl of an electric mixer. Beat the dough on medium speeds  
and add the eggs, one at a time. Continue beating until the dough holds  
together. Remove the dough from the mixer and cool. Place the dough in a  
pastry bag fitted with a round tip and pipe out logs, 2 inches long, onto  
the lined baking sheet, about 2 inches apart. Place the pan in the oven and  
bake for 10 minutes. Reduce the heat to 350 degrees F. and continue to cook  
for 25 minutes. Do not remove the sheet from the oven until they are firm to  
the touch. Cool the shells completely. Fill a pastry bag, fitted with a  
small round tip, with the pastry cream. Place the eclairs on a wire rack  
underlined with a baking sheet. Spoon some of the glaze over each eclair.  
Refrigerate the eclairs until the glaze is set. Remove from the refrigerator  
and serve.  
Yield: 50 servings
