[ohmate91]

Within 10 minutes of watching this video I popped down to franklins to purchase these ingredients. Definitely a simple recipe and a hit with family and friends. Thanks onePotChef !

[TheWALKER321]

[Addicted2chocolatify]

Could you use a chainsaw to cut the biscuits instead of serrated knife? :)

[hollisterluver1308]

[michellejoyprotacio]

[XxImamAlixX]

Very simple, very cool

[Navizurc123]

I WANT THAT WISK

[MrFlyUpHigh]

[nalodailec]

Inspired - I'd never have thought of that. Liked the no fuss approach. Thank you. :-)

[MsSummertimes]

i think his eyes are a lovely colour <3

[eliR101]

can you make a carrot cake video my mom's Birthday is coming up soon and i wanted to make her something nice.

[Thetom5000]

that wisk is kool

[MAGIC2479]

whip cream?

[MPSecare]

Why not buy at a store?

Because if you make it yourself you can have 20 for the price you will pay for like 8 at a supermarket.

^_^

And it tastes fucking awesome when you make it yourself!

[missjambalaya]

i just made a few(: cant wait to try em

[dudeB15]

[Kozuto10]

that guy can be the new mall santa...... he seems jolly

[CloudGuns]

[spitfirecs420]

You seem like a good jolly ole fellow.

[MSCL0797]

@KandiAcid he's australian..

[OnePotChefShow]

@EricPulgarin Because this is a cooking channel, for people who want to learn how to make things in their own kitchen ;)

[ArtisticLana]

@EricPulgarin The store bought eclairs have low quality ingredients, like artificial flavors and corn syrup. Its a better choice to make your own homemade eclairs.

[tasha14141414]

@EricPulgarin Its always better when you make it yourself!!

[hulahoolaXx]

Please can u do a video on macarons?

[OnePotChefShow]

@hulahoolaXx Funny you should mention it, I've got a macaroons video coming up in a few weeks ;)

[aznkid210]

epicmealtime eat everything that they make, Epicleftovers!

[cleyface20]

that is not a chocolate eclair

[DaKurupt19]

Jenny craig ad is appropiate...lol

[thebibleisfiction]

excuse me while i pick my jaw off the floor

[2010fatimae]

Delicious, just delicious!!

[KoryThaMan]

thats a big bight

[OnePotChefShow]

@johnleisurely69 Ahhh ok LOL I feel like a knob now hahaha :P

[HKUser92]

@OnePotChefShow Actually they said that they eat all of the food they make. It just lasts a week, and they have a bunch of them to help eat it all.

[highstona777]

@OnePotChefShow Dont feel bad EpicMealTime are great at what they do but your a Family type based cook and are here to show people (like me) how to cook at home =)

[OnePotChefShow]

@johnleisurely69 It's hard to compare me to EpicMealTime. I make actual recipes, they just waste food for entertainment ;)

[MrButterworth24]

@OnePotChefShow yeah but you have to admit epicmealtime is funny and some recipes look delicious (and unhealthy of course) haha im subscribed to both for you I get real recipes for them I get my fill of bacon

[EURuger]

i just love eclairs! MOUTH WATERING



[reeree625]

could you just put in whipped cream? like the ones in the can? lol

[OnePotChefShow]

@reeree625 If you want, but I think the vanilla cream in the recipe is much nicer ;)

[duriantram]

Whoa...best shortcut ever! Looks so delicious, thanks! :)

[Polaris8492]

Your American friends thank you. XD

[SerinaMestizA]

oh my dear lord.....yuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuum

[mscandyclash]

I can actually make choux pretty well, but i have always had luck with pastries. :) this is an awesome idea though

[AlexSaidit]

Hey, you are really amazing. I never get tired seeing your videos and the simple and easy way you cook. Congratulations.

[tiAGOgO1996]

I think its Belgian , not french ? Maybe i'm wrong... Don't know XD

[OnePotChefShow]

@MrSuperkidbuu Visit youtube (dot) com / partners and apply ;)

[deeplydeepali]

you have pretty eyes.

[berserkronin]

One pot Chef, you rock man, I haven't tried to prepare anything you've made yet, but the videos are great, you have a good demeanor, great manners, and just all around good personality. I hope you do well, you seem very passionate about cooking and it's good to see someone who's passionate who enjoys teaching too. Just wanted to give some words of encouragement.

[sSoloW]

Hey I tried to make this with 35% whipping cream and it came out too liquidy....

Not sure which cream to buy.

[OnePotChefShow]

@sSoloW If it's whipping cream, you'll need to whip it (with a whisk) until it's thick ;)

[jeetendrag10acc2]

One pot chef rocks!!! (i said that a few times,still not tired of saying it again :-) )

One pot chef rocks!!!

[jonaspTV]

what is analternative for the buiscits you used? I live in Norway and we dont have them here :(

[chocolatestrawbs]

can you put custard in these? :D

[OnePotChefShow]

@chocolatestrawbs Absolutely ;)

[pingugirl01]

Hiya, I live in the uk and at the supermarket I can only get sponge fingers with like a sugar coating on the top will these be ok ??? x love ur vids keep uploading xxxx

[OnePotChefShow]

@pingugirl01 That's fine - that's what I used ;)

[vasemedroserii]

Yeah how did you get that eyecolour?

[OnePotChefShow]

@vasemedroserii A combination of genetics and good lighting :)

[vasemedroserii]

@OnePotChefShow Hehe you mean good genetics! :-) Because it's beautiful!

[OneHappyBird123]

Yum!

[jillybnz2379]

They look devine for sure... I'll have 1 with some nice hot brewed coffee please!

lol

[saberf111]

ehh !

[BlatentlyBooshified]

Thick cream - In for a penny, in for a pound ;D

[otaconas]

Beautiful eyes 

[ornitorrinco01]

My god that is genius! I never thought of something as simple as using sponge fingers to make chocolate eclairs, and they look great too. Thanks so much OPC for sharing this great recipe.

[genmama1955]

I made real chocolate eclairs once, and it wasn't hard. Here in America, I've never heard of sponge fingers. xoxo

[QueenAmanda86]

-Drools- my childhood fave @_@

and ill be making an batch of those this week @_@

[purewic]

I just love you and this idea. But please don`t think making "real" eclairs is hard work.

Here in Germany children in school learn how to make them in home economics. At least we did 20 years ago.

[TheButterfly2907]

YAMIIIIIIII!!

[CrAzYcArNiE08]

How about vanilla or strawberry eclairs?

[Benalr]

great video man- keep them coming...thanks!

[claytonjaros]

Could you mail some of those over here to the US for me? :D lol Looks good!

[mizyki]

I love watching these videoes xD whilst they make everyone else hungry, they actually make me fed up for some odd reason xD

[Coralista21]

You are an absolute genius!!! .... I am so going to make this today !!!

[ConnorFlockSpeevage]

You sir, are a genius.

[lacecraze]

by the way mr chef, can vanilla essence be eaten "raw" like tht ? tht's my only concern but other than that they look amazing :))

[OnePotChefShow]

@lacecraze Vanilla Essence doesn't need to be cooked - so no need to worry ;)

[lacecraze]

yes, tht's why i love mr one pot chef! keep it up please mister i looove how yummy all the food are, and i can feel the warmth from you too :) take care!

[hassoun6]

I hate you! (In a good way, if that's possible)

[OnePotChefShow]

@hassoun6 LOL I get that a lot :)

[natalie1605]

I want these, right now! But of course I just ate dinner and don't have the sponge fingers handy :(

[OnePotChefShow]

@natalie1605 I hope you give these a go sometime - you'll love them :)

[KKoderz]

looks like 6 people dont like eclairs

[OnePotChefShow]

@KKoderz 6 people are Patisserie Chefs :P

[Darline211]

i dont know

[OnePotChefShow]

@Darline211 Neither do I :P

[jillmdejesus]

Thanks David for two videos this week! Love that.

[OnePotChefShow]

@jillmdejesus If all goes well, it'll be the new normal schedule :)

[OnePotChefShow]

@DyleAlano09 To be honest, it would be easier and cheaper to buy them for this recipe ;)

[gladyse85]

Sooooo easy!!! By the way love the poached eggs!!! Love the way you make every recepie so easy!!! Kisses from Mexico, can you make a carrot cake??

[OnePotChefShow]

@gladyse85 I'll add it to the possible future recipe list ;)

[HybridHumanSquid]

^^ Oh they look so good~ And I've heard that Pate a Choux is a little difficult to make. I will never be a pastry chef, ever! There's too much for my brain to handle :P

[OnePotChefShow]

@HybridHumanSquid I don't blame you! I gave up on Choux pastry years ago - it's just too easy to mess up. Best to leave it to the lucky few who can make it flawlessly every time :)

[HybridHumanSquid]

@OnePotChefShow Heh heh~ Well, I'm just in school for culinary so I haven't tried my hand at it~ I'd like to try one day ;D

[iDummiix3]

i ate this a couple of weeks ago and i didnt like it much hopefully yours is MUCH MUCH better :D

[OnePotChefShow]

@iDummiix3 You'll fall in love with these :)

[xCelsius451x]

This might actually be the epitome of youtube. straightforward, user created, purposeful, free!

[OnePotChefShow]

@xCelsius451x I'd like to think so :)

[babylove201089]

is there anything else i could use instead of french sponge fingers? they are not sold where i live....thanx so much....

[OnePotChefShow]

@babylove201089 Actually they are Italian, they are also known by the name "Savoriardi" - might be worth asking at your local supermarkets. There really isn't any substitute, short of making the choux pastry (which is why this recipe was made - to avoid that!)

[theoneelf]

I was drinking coffee when watching this, too bad I don't have the stuff to make these =/

[OnePotChefShow]

@theoneelf A quick trip to the shops could fix that... :)

[maykynize]

I like your hair this way :) and they recipe looks so yummy

[OnePotChefShow]

@maykynize Me too - doesn't get messed up in the wind! :P

[bethanya541]

.... good recipe .. might make it what is your secret?..... i also have a a another family member who adores your work !

[OnePotChefShow]

@bethanya541 Thanks heaps - I'm glad you guys like what I do :)

[Esunshine71]

tiramisu sandwish!! yum

[OnePotChefShow]

@Esunshine71 You could add some coffee to the cream mixture and it really would be tiramisu ;)

[umkoki]

WOOOOOW i love the idea about sponge fingers , soooo easy recipe

thanks a lot for this easy yummy recipe , i will do it tomorrow :)

[OnePotChefShow]

@umkoki Let me know how they turn out ;)

[umkoki]

@OnePotChefShow

thanks a lot for the recipe, i made it last Thursday , it was sooo easy and very yummy,, everyone love it

thanks again :)

[OnePotChefShow]

@umkoki You're welcome - I'm glad they were a success :)

[irishmanonthecan]

i love you onepotchef!!

[OnePotChefShow]

@irishmanonthecan I love you too :)

[ownhomedog]

How delicious! Love your videos & recipes!

[OnePotChefShow]

@ownhomedog Thanks OwnHomeDog - and thanks for watching :)

[spuogis]

It makes me nervous when people ask can i put rhis can i put that? can't you just try experiment and come up with your variation?

[OnePotChefShow]

@spuogis That would be nice - but I think most of the people who ask are new to cooking and are terrified of making a mistake / wasting ingredients :)

[spuogis]

@OnePotChefShow With mistakes comes expiriance ;) cooocking is all about experiments ;) like chemistry :DDD

[TakanashiYuuji]

Brilliant.

Would it be possible to make the lady fingers crispy? and how would you go about it?

[viddynovic]

@TakanashiYuuji pop them in the toaster maybe? worth a try :) or maybe use shortbread cookies instead of ladyfingers?

[OnePotChefShow]

@TakanashiYuuji The sponges finger biscuits are already crisp on the outside, and soft but firm on the inside. You shouldn't need to crisp them up any more.

[anaw1188]

OMG! so easy! and they look soooo yummy! I want one!!! So those sponge fingers are like ladyfingers right? they look like them, only those ones are bigger and spongier lol... I dont think i could cut ladyfingers like that

[OnePotChefShow]

@anaw1188 I'm not sure what Lady Fingers are (in Australia - a Lady Finger is a type of banana!) so I can't advise :)

[anaw1188]

@OnePotChefShow Well, with that answer I did a little lazy and found that they are the same. Italian Sponge Fingers in Australia = Lady finger in USA (in my country is neither cause I speak spanish but I learned the USA term). Thanks for this recipe by the way (well, all of them actually). I'll stop writing now lol

[hashmeer0810]

Great shortcut! They look great.

[OnePotChefShow]

@hashmeer0810 Thanks - glad you liked them :)

[TeoSims]

my dream has come true

I LOVE ECLAIRS THANK YOU ALMIGHT GOD OF DELICIOUSNESS

[OnePotChefShow]

@TeoSims LOL now there's a title I could get used too :)

[Darline211]

they are yummie and i made them already from a cookbook

[OnePotChefShow]

@Darline211 I wonder if we have the same cookbook? :)

[Badzeep]

nom nom nom nom! gonna make these! : )

[OnePotChefShow]

@Badzeep I hope you have fun making them :)

[LollieLovesLollies]

I think you're a genius! What a delicious cheat. Can't wait to make them! I don't suppose you can think of a cheat for something that tastes of a custard doughnut?

[OnePotChefShow]

@LollieLovesLollies I'll add it to the "research" list :)

[LollieLovesLollies]

@OnePotChefShow You're a star! I've done so many of your recipes and they are always well loved.

[TheVittleVlog]

Nice work Chef!!!

[OnePotChefShow]

@TheVittleVlog Thanks Vittle ;)

[LushinNickii]

this dessert and all of your other recipes taste delicious!:) your channel is great !

[OnePotChefShow]

@LushinNickii Thanks - I'm glad you enjoy my videos :)

[thizizliz]

How clever! I'm going to look for that double cream; I've never seen it before but never knew to look for it either. Just thought it was English. Thanks!

[OnePotChefShow]

@thizizliz If you can't find double cream, any cream suitable for whipping will be fine :)

[IndividuallyLondon]

NOM NOM NOM :D

[OnePotChefShow]

@IndividuallyLondon Thanks for watching :)

[karmagirl74]

OMG!!! I love this. My lard ass wont .. but I will .. hmmmmm :D xx

[OnePotChefShow]

@karmagirl74 Honey, you could eat these once an hour, every hour for the next 5 years and not have a "lard ass" - you got a rock-hard butt that brings all the boys to the yard (Kelis reference ftw!)

[karmagirl74]

@OnePotChefShow ... bahahah ... I love you! :D x

[TexasHoldMe87]

my mouth just....exploded...i had to keep it g-rated lol

[OnePotChefShow]

@TexasHoldMe87 LOL G-Rated is probably best :P
