In a pot, bring to boil water with a pinch of salt. Add butter and let it melt. Stir in flour and stir until a dough ball forms. Remove from heat, transfer into a bowl (not plastic), and the dough ball cool down a bit. Now it is time for some hard work. Stir one egg at a time into the cooked dough, making sure that you incorporate egg completely before adding another egg.

Bake on the middle rack for 20 minutes and do not open the oven for the first 10 minutes. This dough is very sensitive. After 20 minutes turn the oven down and let the profiteroles in the oven for additional 5 minutes to dry out a bit. Pull them out of the oven and let them cool completely before filling.
