Doughnuts are fried in oil. If you bake them, they are cakes. If you
microwave them, they are garbage.
Mix a little dough or buy some ready made pizza dough. Let it rise and
microwave it and you'll have your answer.

Did not sound like it they were prattling on (and disturbing my snooze)
about adding this & that to the mixture and which MICROwave setting
was the best .
Pair of Noisy old biddies I had images of the Aunts from Arsenic & old
lace :) But the shut eye was much needed and appreciated .

Cream Puffs & Eclairs

" This recipe was put together to have a dessert that is low in fat
and extra low in sugar and sodium, so delicious, that even a diabetic
would think they were in sugar heaven. Well, here it is, try it."

Nonstick cooking spray

1 cup Water
5 Tbsp Unsalted margarine
1/2 cup Sifted all-purpose flour
1/4 cup Cornstarch
3 large Eggs


Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Lightly coat a baking sheet with
the cooking spray and set aside.

In a medium-size heavy saucepan, bring the water and margarine to a
boil, uncovered, over moderately high heat -- about 1 minute.
Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the flour and cornstrch and
quickly add -- all at once -- to the boiling mixture. Stir briskly
with a wooden spoon until the mixture forms a ball around the spoon
and does not cling to the sides of the pan. Remove from the heat and
cool for 2 minutes, then add the eggs, one at a time, beating well
after each addition, until the dough is smooth and glossy.

To shape cream puffs, drop the dough by heaping tablespoonfuls onto
the baking sheet, spacing the puffs about 2 inches apart. To shape
eclairs, shape the dough into narrow rectangles about 3 1/2 inches
long (it's easiest to do this by piping the dough through a pastry bag
fitted with a large plain tip)

Bake the puffs or eclairs for 10 minutes, then reduce the heat to 350
degrees F and bake 25 minutes longer or until the puffs are firm.
Transfer to wire racks and cool to room temperature -- about 1 hour.

To fill, slice the puffs in half horizontally, spoon a tablespoon of a
low-calorie pudding filling into the bottoms, and replace the tops.
Makes 15 large cream puffs or eclairs.

I wouldn't feed that to a pig. At least not a pig that I wasn't
getting ready to slaughter.
