One of my very favorite desserts in the whole-wide-world is an Eclair!  I can vividly remember, as a little girl, the wedding reception where I first enjoyed one of these delightful little desserts!  Mmmm.  I love them…

Homemade Eclairs are even a step better, in my opinion, and these light and fluffy desserts aren’t hard to make at all 🙂
