Directions

Preheat oven to 425°.
Lightly grease a baking sheet and set aside.
In a 3-quart pan over medium-high heat, bring water, butter, salt, and sugar (if used) to a boil.
When butter melts, remove pan from heat, add flour all at once, and beat with a wooden spoon until well blended.
Reduce heat to medium.
Return pan to heat and stir vigorously with a wooden spoon until mixture forms a ball and leaves sides of pan.
Remove pan from heat and let mixture cool for 5 minutes.
Add eggs, one at a time, beating mixture after each addition until smooth.
