Eclairs in 40 minutes!

When I was a kid, me, my bros and my sister would all go over my Nana and Grampy's house every weekend. We would stay there from Friday night to Saturday night. On most Friday nights, my Nana would order pizza from the best pizza place in the world, Papa Ginos. (Boston pizza is the best pizza ever). Then when we didn't order pizza on Fridays, my nana would make her famous Mac and cheees or American Chop Suey. Alot of the time, we would have these Eclairs for dessert. So me and my brother's and sister all grew up with these eclairs. So when we moved here to Florida and ordered an eclair somewhere, to our suprise, these eclairs were filled with this fake wannabe custard. So I've always wanted to make my own.

So tonight for dinner, pain in the ass. I was making pasta for about 2 hours and then in 5 minutes had to make my chicken, while everyone else had beef. Had to make my sauce and everything in like 5 minutes. By the time we ended up eating, it was pretty late and I remembered that I wanted to try out this awesome eclair recipe I found on this amazing bread site.
http://www.thefreshloaf.com/recipes/eclairs. But I was extremely limited on time. I wanted to make these tonight because a bunch of people were over for dinner, so what a perfect time to make them eh? For the time I was given, I think that they came out pretty good. They don't look super pretty, but for sure next time they will.
