How to Make Easy Eclair Dessert

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Unfold the thawed puff pastry on a lightly floured surface. Using a sharp knife or pizza cutter, cut the pastry into 4 equal rectangles.
  3. Place the rectangles onto the prepared baking sheet. Brush the tops with the beaten egg.
  4. Bake for 12-16 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and puffed up.
  5. Remove from oven and let cool completely on a wire rack.
  6. While the pastry cools, melt the chocolate in a double boiler or microwave in 30 second intervals, stirring until smooth.
  7. In a chilled bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Gradually add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, continuing to whip until stiff peaks form.
  8. Once the pastry is completely cool, carefully slice each rectangle lengthwise, creating a pocket.
  9. Fill each pastry pocket generously with the whipped cream.
  10. Drizzle the melted chocolate over the filled éclairs.
  11. Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious, easy éclairs!
