Tiny Roquefort Popovers — from Williams-Sonoma Hors d’Oeuvre

• 1 cup flour
• 1/2 tsp kosher salt
• 1/4 tsp ground white pepper
• 1 Tbs fresh parsley, finely chopped
• 1 1/4 cup milk, at room temperature
• 2 eggs, at room temperature
• 1 Tbs butter, melted
• 3 oz Roquefort, or other strong-flavored crumbly blue cheese, crumbled
• Cooking spray

Preheat oven to 450 degrees.

Coat one 24-cup or two 12-cup mini muffin pans with cooking spray.

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, white pepper, and parsley.

In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, and melted butter.

Pour the wet ingredients over the dry ingredients and whisk together until just combined.

Pour the batter into the prepared muffin paps to within about 1/4 inch of the rim.  Place a scant teaspoon of crumbled bleu cheese in the center of each filled cup.

Bake for 10 minutes.

Without opening the oven, reduce the heat to 350 degrees and continue to bake for 8-10 minutes longer, or until browned and fully puffed.
