Prosciutto Cups with Cheese & Herb Filling

Believe it or not, this appetizer only takes 20 minutes to make… what are you waiting for?

I love prosciutto! You might remember seeing this lovely dry-cured ham in some of my other recipes …. can’t seem to get enough 🙂

These are AMAZING for a party. You can make the cups and filling ahead of time, place each in their own zip-lock bags, refrigerate, and pull out when ready to use. Just bring to room temp, then fill with the creamy cheese. Mmmmm.

Since it was just the girls and I eating these, I had some leftovers, so I plopped them on top of a bed of mixed greens, for an unforgettable salad. But, I really doubt you’ll have any leftovers 🙂 heheh

Prosciutto Cups with Cheese & Herb Filling

1. Preheat oven to 375. Slice prosciutto down the middle to make 2 strips thinner strips.
2. Take prosciutto and lay each half slice inside a mini muffin tin. Over lap the sides to make a ” meat cup.” 🙂 Bake at 375 degrees F for 9-10 minutes.
3. Remove from the oven and allow to cool for a couple minutes.
4. After cooled, place on paper towel to drain off any excesses grease.
   * You can use right away, or refrigerate in a zip-lock till next day. Bring to room temperature before using.
5. Place whipping cream, goat cheese, cream cheese, herbs and a pinch of salt and pepper into a mixing bowl.
6. Beat until thick and creamy.
7. Put cheese mixture into a pipping bag.If you don’t have one, just use a large zip-lock bag and cut off a corner to pipe with.
8. Pipe whipped cheese mixture into each cup and place a small chive on top for garnish.
