    1      cup           water -- boiling
      1/2  cup           butter
    1      cup           all-purpose flour
      1/4  teaspoon      salt
    4                    eggs
    1 1/2  quarts        vanilla ice cream
                         Creamy Chocolate sauce -- (see recipe)
 
      Boil water and butter together over medium heat. Reduce heat to low and
 add flour and salt all at once. Stir vigorously over the heat until mixture
 forms a ball and leaves sides of pan. Remove from heat and cool slightly.
      Add eggs one at a time, beating well until smooth and shiny. Drop by
 level tablespoon onto a greased cookie sheet 1-1/2" apart. Bake at 450 degrees
 for 20 minutes. Reduce heat to 370 degrees. Bake 15 minutes longer and allow
 to cool. Cut a slice off top of each puff. Fill with ice cream and replace
 tops. Freeze.
      When ready to serve, top with Creamy Chocolate Sauce.
