Ingredients:
1 (9 inch) pie shells
1/2 cup fresh breadcrumbs
2 eggs, well beaten
2 tablespoons butter or 2 tablespoons margarine, softened
1/2 cup sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
1/3 cup milk
1/4 teaspoon hot pepper sauce
1/4 teaspoon salt ( or to taste)
1 dash pepper
1 teaspoon baking powder
Directions:
Roll out pie dough on a lightly floured surface into about a 12 inch circle.
With a round 3″ cookie cutter, cut dough into circles.
Using a muffin pan with cups 1 3/4″ in diameter, press each circle into the bottom and sides of the muffin cups.
Continue to reroll and cut pastry scraps to make a total of 15-18 tart shells.
Mix together the rest of the ingredients, and fill each shell with about a tbsp of the mixture.
Bake uncovered at 400F for 25 minutes or until top is set when lightly tapped.
Serve warm or cooled.
