5. [1:21](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fw8iU-i6tbs&t=81s) Add cold eggs one at a time, beating until fully incorporated after each addition.
6. [1:32](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fw8iU-i6tbs&t=92s) Scrape down the bowl and continue beating until the dough is smooth and forms a thick ribbon.
7. [2:10](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fw8iU-i6tbs&t=130s) Transfer the dough into a pastry bag fitted with a Wilton 1M open star tip.
