Preparation

Step 1

1. In a bowl, pour boiling water over raisins to cover. Set aside.

2. In a medium saucepan, combine water, butter, sugar and salt. Bring to boiling. Add 1 flour all at once, stirring vigorously. Cook and stir till mixture forms a ball that doesn't separate. Remove from heat. Cool for 5 minutes.

3. Add eggs, one at a time, beating with a wooden spoon after each addition till smooth. Drain the raisins and stir into the batter.

4. Drop batter by tablespoons (1 inch apart) onto greased baking sheets. Bake in a 375° oven for 30 minutes. Cool popovers on wire rack.

5. Combine the melted butter or margarine, half and half or light cream, vanilla and enough powdered sugar to make a drizzling consistency. Drizzle over popovers.
