Take note
Please be cautious when working with hot ingredients and sharp tools. Always use oven mitts when handling hot trays or pans. And remember, patience is key when it comes to achieving the perfect eclair!

1

Prepare the Pastry

In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup of water, 1/2 cup of unsalted butter, and a pinch of salt over medium heat. Bring to a boil, then remove from heat. Add 1 cup of all-purpose flour all at once and stir vigorously until the mixture forms a ball. Transfer the dough to a mixing bowl.

2

Add the Eggs

With an electric mixer on low speed, beat in 4 eggs, one at a time, making sure each egg is fully incorporated before adding the next. The dough should be smooth and shiny. Transfer the dough to a piping bag fitted with a large round tip.

3

Pipe and Bake

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Pipe the dough onto the prepared baking sheet in 4-inch long strips, leaving space between each one. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the eclairs are golden brown and puffed. Remove from the oven and let cool completely.

4

Prepare the Vanilla Filling

In a mixing bowl, beat 1 cup of heavy cream, 1/4 cup of powdered sugar, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract until stiff peaks form. Fill a piping bag fitted with a small round tip with the vanilla cream.

5

Fill the Eclairs

Using a sharp knife, make a small slit at the bottom of each eclair. Insert the piping tip into the slit and pipe the vanilla cream into each eclair until filled. Set aside.

6

Make the Glaze

In a microwave-safe bowl, melt 1/2 cup of white chocolate chips with 1 teaspoon of vegetable oil in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth. Dip the top of each eclair into the melted chocolate and let the excess drip off. Place the eclairs on a wire rack to set.

7

Serve and Enjoy

Once the chocolate has hardened, your Valkyrie Vanilla Eclairs are ready to be devoured! Serve them as a delightful dessert or share them with your fellow dessert warriors. Enjoy and bask in the heavenly taste of these divine treats!
