Servings : 8

4 tb Vegetable Shortening 1 1/3 c Unbleached Flour
1/2 ts Salt 2/3 c Milk
2/3 c Water 4 Eggs; Lg
1/2 c Cheddar; Sharp, Shredded



Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Place eight 6-oz custard cups on a
large baking sheet. Spoon 1 1/2 tsp of shortening into the bottom of each
custard cup and set aside. Combine the flour and salt in a large bowl,
then gradually stir in the milk and water until well blended. Beat in the
eggs, 1 at a time, beating until smooth after each addition. Fold in the
cheddar cheese. Place the baking sheet with the custard cups in the
preheated oven for 3 to 5 minutes until the shortening melts and the
custard cups are hot. Fill the custard cups 1/2 to 2/3rds full with the
batter. Bake for 45 minutes in the preheated oven, without opening the
oven door until the popovers rise and turn golden brown. If not golden
brown after 45 minutes, bake for an additional 5 minutes. Serve piping
hot.
