Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter

  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 2 cups powdered sugar

Instructions

  1. In a saucepan over low heat, melt the unsalted butter with water, salt, and granulated sugar until it gently boils. Add all-purpose flour and stir until it forms a smooth ball of dough.
  2. Allow the dough to cool slightly before mixing in eggs one at a time until smooth and sticky.
  3. Transfer dough to a piping bag fitted with a star tip and pipe long strips onto parchment-lined sheets.
