Step 1: In a large saucepan bring water and butter to a boil. Add flour all at once, stirring until a smooth ball forms. Remove from the heat; let stand for 5 minutes.
Step 2: Add eggs one at a time beating well after each addition; continue beating until mixture is smooth and shiny. Transfer to a resealable plastic bag; seal. Cut a 1-inch hole in one corner of bag. Pipe eight 3-1/2-inch logs onto an ungreased baking sheet.
Step 3: Bake in a preheated 450 degree F oven for 10 minutes (do not open the oven while baking!). Reduce heat to 400 degrees F and continue baking for another 15-20 minutes longer or until golden brown.
Step 4: Transfer to a wire rack. Immediately cut a slit in each to allow stream to escape; cool. Split and set the tops aside and dscard soft dough inside.
Step 5: For filling, in a large bowl, whisk milk, vanilla and pudding mix for 2 minutes. Let stand for 2 minutes or until soft-set. Fold in whipped topping; set aside.
Step 6: In another large bowl whisk milk with chocolate pudding mix for 2 minutes; let stand for 2 minutes or until soft-set. Spoon vanilla filling into cooled eclairs; replace tops. Spread with chocolate topping.
