just here to subscribe for now! I've been baking for a little while, and I like making desserts like chocolate eclairs and cookies! Chocolate eclairs are my favorite even though I've still never baked a batch that didn't deflate. I've been really meaning to make cream puffs, but haven't had the time. I suck at knowing when kneaded doughs are done with being kneaded and I suck at kneading in general, even with a dough hook.

 Aaaaah I absolutely love eclairs ! My favourite flavour is coffee. But chocolate is awesome too. Never tried to bake some but definitely on my list.

Oop-

@Rui, looks amazing! I’m really hungry, I haven’t eaten and I’m trying not to, but that makes my stomach grumble when it’s not supposed to XD!

@Inoracam, aaa-! I’ve never tried an eclair before! Do you think you could send over a recipe in pms or something?
