Cream Puffs

From The Queen Cook Book: A Careful Compilation of Recipes and Practical ..., 1895

For the filling: 1 cup milk, 0.5 cup sugar, 1 tablespoon corn starch, 2 eggs, little salt. Put the milk in a double boiler, wet the corn starch in a little cold milk; when the milk is hot, after beating all the ingredients well together, cook until like a custard; flavor with vanilla. When both this and the puffs are cool, open one side of the puffs and fill with cream. This makes one dozen.
