[puddicat]

I am going to try and make these, have a recipe which says put a small hole with a skewer or a small knife to release the steam when cooked,when cool pipe in vanilla cream, i dont want to do this i want to half them and pipe in the cream like a sandwich is it difficult to cut a cooked eclair case in half???

Wouldnt have thought so if you let them cool, dont do it while even warm as they will squash.

put the pastry back into oven after snipping else they will flatten.
