After you take them out of the oven prick a small hole in each one. This releases the steam from them and should allow them to crisp up. I think if you don't prick them the hot air stays inside them and makes them a bit moist and soft.

Yes, that's right. Poke a small hole in each and return to the warm oven to dry out.

http://brama-sole.co.nz/recipes/choux-pastry-eclairs-cream-puffs/ for the recipe & instructions, and works. I made profiteroles filled with creme patisserie for my daughters birthday on Friday,they went down very well. Oooh just remembered, there are some still in the tin, mmm I might make some more custard up and fill them. Yum.
