These were great this morning warm from the oven with coffee. Like a cream puff with blueberries baked in.

Recipe comes from the Oregon Sampler

1 cup water
1/2 cup butter
1/4 tsp salt
1 tsp sugar
1/4 tsp cinnamon
1 cup flour
4 eggs
1/2 cup blueberries, fresh or frozen

Lemon Frosting:

1 T butter
1 1/2 T heavy cream or half and half
1 cup powdered sugar
1/2 tsp fresh lemon juice

In a medium saucepan bring water, butter, salt and sugar to a boil. Add cinnamon and flour all at once and beat over low heat for 1 minute, or until mixture leaves the sides of the pan. Remove from heat and beat 2 more minutes.

Beat in eggs, one at a time, beating well after each. Stir in blueberries ( well drained, if using frozen).

Drop by spoonfuls about 2 inches apart on greased baking sheets. Bake at 375 degrees for 30 to 35 minutes. Frost with Lemon frosting while still warm.
