1 tsp Olive Oil or Butter (for greasing the muffin tin)

For the Creamy Filling (The Heart of the Quiche)
2 Large Eggs 🥚🥚 (Room temperature works best!)Dairy & Eggs

1/2 cup Heavy Cream (or Half-and-Half for a lighter option) 🥛

1/4 cup Milk (Whole or 2%)

1/2 tsp Salt 🧂

1/4 tsp Black Pepper

Pinch of Nutmeg (optional, but adds a professional, warming touch!) ✨

1 cup Shredded Cheese (A blend of Gruyère and Cheddar or Mozzarella is divine!) 🧀

2 tbsp Chopped Fresh Chives or Green Onions (for that bright green color and oniony bite!) 🌿

Extra Cheese (for a gorgeous, bubbly top layer, like in the picture!) 🥇

Take the puff pastry out of the freezer and let it thaw in the refrigerator overnight, or on the counter for about 40 minutes. It needs to be cold enough to handle but pliable enough to roll! DO NOT let it get too warm, or it will be sticky and lose its flakiness! 🥶

➡️ Preparation: Setting the Stage for Success!
Preheat & Prep: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a standard 12-cup muffin tin with oil or butter. This ensures the mini quiches pop out easily! 🧈

Roll the Pastry: On a lightly floured surface, gently unfold the thawed puff pastry sheet. Use a rolling pin to slightly roll it out, just enough to smooth the folds and make it slightly thinner (about 1/8 inch thick).

Cut the Circles: Using a round cookie cutter, a drinking glass, or even a jar lid (about 3 to 3.5 inches / 8-9 cm in diameter), cut out 12 to 18 circles from the puff pastry. Re-roll the scraps gently if you need more circles. ✂️
