Mini Roasted Tomato Tatins

• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
• 12 Black Cherry or other small tomatoes
• 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
• 6 large shallots, thinly sliced
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 1/4 cup sherry vinegar
• 2 tablespoons honey
• Salt and freshly ground pepper
• 1 pound all-butter puff pastry
• All-purpose flour, for dusting
• 1 tablespoon snipped chives

1. Preheat the oven to 375.
2. Generously butter two 12-cup mini-muffin pans.
3. Fold a 12-inch square of wax paper or parchment paper into quarters.
4. Trace six 11/4-inch circles on the paper and cut through the layers to make 24 small disks.
5. Line the bottom of each cup with a paper disk.
6. Butter the paper.
7. Bring a medium pot of water to a boil.
8. Meanwhile, fill a large bowl with ice water.
9. Using a sharp knife, make a shallow X in the bottom of each tomato.
10. Add the tomatoes to the boiling water and blanch just until the skins begin to pull away, about 20 seconds.
11. Using a slotted spoon, immediately transfer the tomatoes to the ice water.
12. Drain and peel the tomatoes.
13. Halve the tomatoes crosswise.
14. In a medium skillet, heat the olive oil until shimmering.
15. Add the shallots and cook over moderate heat, stirring frequently, until lightly browned, about 8 minutes.
16. Add the garlic and cook for 2 to 3 minutes.
17. Add the vinegar and honey, season with salt and pepper and cook over low heat until the liquid has evaporated and the shallots are jamlike, about 5 minutes.
18. Transfer to a bowl and let cool.
19. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the puff pastry 1/8 inch thick.
20. Using a 13/4-inch biscuit cutter, stamp out 24 rounds.
21. Set a tomato half, cut side down, in each muffin cup.
22. Top each with a scant teaspoon of the shallot marmalade and a puff pastry round.
23. Bake for about 20 minutes, or until the puff pastry is golden brown.
24. Run a knife around the edge of each tatin.
25. Set a baking sheet over the muffin tins and then invert, giving them a firm tap to release the tatins.
26. Replace any tomatoes and shallots stuck to the muffin pan.
27. Discard the paper disks, sprinkle with the chives and serve.
