Tips:

Use a tall ramekin or custard cup to get the best rise out of your popovers.
Make sure your eggs and milk are at room temperature before you start mixing them together. This will help the batter to rise more evenly.
Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the popovers tough.
Preheat your oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit before you start cooking the popovers. This will help them to rise quickly and evenly.
Don't open the oven door during the first 20 minutes of baking. This will cause the popovers to fall.
Serve the popovers immediately with your favorite toppings. They're best when they're hot and fresh.
