Ingredients

  • 1 refrigerated pie crust (1/2 of a 14-ounce package; see Tip)
  • 1/4 cup fig jam
  • 1/4 cup crumbled blue cheese
  • 1 teaspoon Minced fresh chives

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Lightly coat a mini muffin tin with cooking spray.
  2. Unroll pie crust onto a clean surface. Roll the dough into a circle about 12 inches in diameter. Cut 24 2-inch circles out of the dough with a biscuit cutter, rerolling the scraps if needed. Place the dough circles in the prepared muffin cups, gently pressing the dough into the bottom and sides. Prick the dough with a fork. Bake until lightly browned, 5 to 6 minutes.
  3. Add 1/2 teaspoon fig jam to each cup, then top with 1/2 teaspoon crumbled cheese. Bake until hot, 3 to 5 minutes more. Let cool for 10 minutes. Sprinkle with chives, if using.
