It isn't about how many eggs you are using. Sounds like you are using too many already. Try this:
1/2 cup butter
1 cup water
1 cup AP flour
1/4 tsp salt
4 large eggs - room temperature
In a pan combine butter and water. Bring to a boil, stirring until butter melts completely.
Reduce heat to low, add flour and salt. Stir vigorously until mixture leaves the sides of the pan and begins to form a stiff ball.
Remove from heat.
Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. (This is the important part - you really have to add them 1 at a time and beat in completely). Use a spoon and muscles - not a mixer.
Spoon out 9 shapes onto a greased or parchment-paper lined cookie sheet.
Bake at 450 for 15 minutes. Turn down the heat to 325 and bake for 20 minutes until you hear a hollow sound when you tap them.
Remove right away to a wire rack and cool completely. Once cool, cut off the top and scoop out the middle. The middle you throw away.
Fill with cream or pudding and Bob's your uncle!
