WOW; these popovers were great! I did not add olives as we are not big fans. I added 1/2 tsp baking powder and next time I will add a bit more to make them rise better. I could only stretch the batter to fill 12 muffins and it was a stretch. I think there must be a mistake when is says that the recipe will make 24 muffins. We all loved these, both kids and adults. Our girls have their own recipe books that I add special dishes (on their request) to so they later on can see what they liked a certain ages. This recipe has been requested by both girls for their books. Made for 1-2-3 hits.

    Tasty, wonderful popovers, a great compliment to Spanish Sizzled Shrimp #371038. The soft center typical of a popover was a change of pace for us. I made the following changes: put 1/4 cup cornflour (cornmeal pulverized in a food processor) in the 1 cup measure before filling out the 1-cup measuring cup; used 1 tablespoon of dry sherry before I added milk to the 1 cup measure; sauteed 1 teaspoon of minced garlic, 1/4 teaspoon each of dried rosemary and dried thyme in the melted butter before adding to the flour; and added a caper to the top of each muffin. Served with a light, dry Spanish white wine: Marques de la Villa, Malvasia grape, with Toro denomination of origin. I used a cupcake tin, which yielded 11 muffins for me. It took about 20 minutes to bake.

    Yum Yum Yum, even my cheese hater, liked these! Not sure what I did wrong though, these didn't pop like regular popovers, no matter they were good!
