I have a really super easy recipe for Yorkshire puddings... none of that lard in the pans making a mess ####### they probably aren't very traditional but they taste pretty similar....

my hubby loves them and even eats them cold......

**the only thing I changed in the recipe is that I let the batter sit at room temperature for about an hour....

Yorkshire Pudding

1 cup milk

3 tablespoons melted butter

3 eggs

1 cup all-purpose flour

1/2 teaspoon salt

Pam cooking spray

1. Pre-heat oven to 375.

2. Heat a clean, ungreased, empty muffin-pan in the oven while you mix together the milk, melted butter, eggs, flour, and salt.

3. This dough should be thin/runny.

4. When ingredients are mixed together, remove your muffin-pan from the oven, and spray each cup with Pam cooking spray (This step removes the messy'beef-fat method' used in traditional Yorkshire Puddings, and your Yorkshire Puddings will not spill the beef fat over into your oven as they puff up).

5. Once the pan is sprayed, fill each muffin-cup only 2/3 full of the Yorkshire pudding mixture, (they REALLY puff up).

6. Bake in your pre-heated oven for 40 minutes or until golden in colour and puffed up. (avoid peeking before the time is up).

7. Serve while still warm, best served with beef gravy.

8. These form a hollow centre as they bake.

9. These shrink as they cool, so enjoy them while still warm.

My Yorkshire pudding always comes out perfect, but it may be because I use this:

lmao....I didn't even know that existed!!!!!!!!!!! Ron is still trying to get thru his head that it is not dessert and you put gravy on them....lol

I might just try that recipe.... mine is here somewhere, but I like the idea of using Pam!!! Thanks!

I definitely agree with you about the ingredients being at room temperature and the batter allowed to rest, Marilyn. It makes a world of difference.

I looked through a lot of recipes and they all say something different some don't do anything, some let it rest in the fridge and some let it rest at room temp...

I did the room temp thing and it seemed to work great

oh and I just mix all the ingredients in the blender and just let in rest in there and then I can just easily pour the batter into the pan...

For Bee's Jew-mas present (and I swear I'm not trying to be un-PC about Hanukkah here) I'm thinking about getting him the first season of Flight of the Conchords on DVD. My biggest worry is that we'll stop by Best Buy one day and he'll see it and be like "OMG HONEY LET'S GET IT!" I'm banking on him not noticing that the DVD set comes out tomorrow

I ordered chair covers for our wedding. My husband has no idea. I mean he will when the time comes...but he has no idea now. He didn't think it was a necessary expense. It isn't but it sure makes a room look pretty.

Do what I did. Bren wanted this "Babylon 5 Collectors" whatevertheblip edition and found it through a used bookstore in Edmonton. I freaked out on him: WE DON'T HAVE MONEY FOR THIS SHITE BREN, ARE YOU INSANE???????? And walked in the bookstore 3 hrs. later, bought the thing and put it in the freezer next to his icecream.... the rest is history

Devious.

The problem is, I hate to do that when 1) it's $20 or so, and 2) I spent way, way, WAY more on a new mouse yesterday.

...oh hell, I'll just do it anyway. He'll think I'm crazy.
