Coffee (Pop Overs-Beat up eggs until)

*Pop Overs-Beat up 3 eggs until light; add 1 cup milk and 1 teaspoon melted Crisco. Pour this gradually into 1 cup flour and 1/2 teaspoon salt, beating all the time until smooth.

Crisco iron gem pans, put them in the oven, and when hot, take them out and fill them half full of this batter.

Put them back in the oven and bake for 45 minutes. They should be at least 4 times their original bulk. If they fall, they are not thoroughly done. The oven should be hot.
