INSTRUCTIONS

For eclairs, in small saucepan combine vegetable oil spread,salt and 3/4
cup water. Bring to a boil. When vegetable oil spread melts, remove from
heat. Add flour all at once and mix rapidly with wooden spoon until mixture
comes together in ball. Place saucepan over low heat for 3-4 minutes to dry
dough, mixing constantly with wooden spoon. Dough should be soft and not
sticky. Transfer dough to food processor or large bowl of heavy-duty
electric mixture. Cool 5 minutes. Add eggs and egg white, one at a time,
mixing until completely smooth after each addition. (This can be done by
hand, but it is much easier in food processor or heavy-duty electric mixer.
) Coat baking sheet with nonstick spray. Fill large pastry bag (without
tip) with dough. Squeeze out 8 eclairs, each 1" in diameter and 4" in
length, onto baking sheet. Let stand at least 10 minutes to dry. Preheat
oven to 375°F. Bake 35-40 minutes or until golden and cooked all the way
through. Transfer to rack to cool. Meanwhile, for pastry cream, in small
saucepan, stir together milk, sugar, flour, cornstarch and salt until
blended. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until mixture comes to
a boil and thickens, 4-5 minutes. Remove from heat. In small bowl, lightly
beat egg yolk. Gradually whisk in about 1/4 cup hot milk mixture. Whisk egg
yolk mixture back into milk mixture in pan. Return pan to medium-low heat
and whisk mixture until it just begins to simmer, about 30 seconds. Remove
from heat. Stir in vegetable oil spread, zest and orange and vanilla
extracts until smooth and melted. Transfer to bowl. Press plastic wrap
directly onto surface. Cool to room temperature, then chill thoroughly in
refrigerator, about 2 hours. Fold in whipped topping. Refrigerate until
ready to assemble. To assemble eclairs, cut each eclair in half lengthwise.
Spoon about 3 tablespoons pastry cream into each eclair bottom. Replace
tops. For glaze, in small saucepan, combine condensed milk and cocoa
powder. Heat over low heat, stirring constantly, until mixture bubbles and
thickens, 1-2 minutes. Spread over tops of eclairs. If glaze is too thick,
thin with 2-4 teaspoons of water. Serve immediately.
