These pimento cheese phyllo tarts are WICKED. The richness of the pimento cheese is cradled by crispy and delicate phyllo shells. Topped with thick-cut bacon and maybe even some chives, this recipe only has 3-4 ingredients and it very quick to prepare! When I made it for one family, I topped the cups with candied bacon. The boys kept eating all the candied bacon as I was putting it on. That is always a good sign!
1.9-ounce, 15-count phyllo shells
1/2 cup prepared pimento cheese
4 strips cooked bacon, chopped into 1/4 inch slices
Chives, thinly cut (optional)
Preheat oven to 350°. Fill each mini phyllo shell with 1 teaspoon pimento cheese. Sprinkle about 1 teaspoon of the bacon crumbles over the top of each. Transfer to a baking sheet and bake 5-8 minutes. Serve warm. Makes 15 appetizers.
