Savory Thanksgiving Popovers

Preheat oven to 425°. Generously brush every other cup in two 12-count muffin pans with melted butter (it will pool a bit in the bottom of the cups.) In a blender, whirl eggs, milk, flour, 4 T parmesan, pan drippings (or butter), salt and pepper. Pour mixture into prepared muffin pans (each cup should be about half full). Sprinkle with remaining cheese. Bake until puffed and golden, about 20 minutes (don’t worry if some don’t puff quite as high as others). Reduce heat to 350° and bake until popovers are firm, 10-15 minutes.
