Petite Sausage Quiches

• 1 cup butter, softened
• 6 ounces cream cheese, softened
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 6 ounces bulk Italian sausage
• 1 cup shredded Swiss cheese
• 1 tablespoon minced chives
• 1 large egg
• 1/2 cup half-and-half cream
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• Dash cayenne pepper

1. Preheat oven to 375u0b0. Beat butter, cream cheese and flour until smooth. Shape tablespoonfuls of dough into 36 balls; press onto the bottom and up the sides of greased miniature muffin cups.
2. In a large skillet, cook sausage over medium heat until no longer pink; drain and crumble. Sprinkle sausage, Swiss cheese and chives into muffin cups. Beat egg, cream, salt and pepper until blended; pour into shells.
3. Bake until browned, 28-30 minutes (for a browner bottom crust, bake on a lower rack). Serve warm.
