She Eats Breakfast: Sausage Cups

Working with a recipe I found online, I was able to create a great breakfast idea!  These are perfect for having on-hand so you can grab a quick breakfast (especially if you need to take that breakfast on the road!) each morning.  They can be frozen and reheated easily.

Here's what I am talking about:
Sausage, Egg and Cheese Biscuit Cups

To create the biscuit dough for the bottom of the cup, combine in mixer/food processor
  • 2 1/2 c flour
  • 2 1/2 t baking powder
  • 1/2 t salt
  • 1 T sugar
  • 1/2 c butter, cut into small pieces
Stir in the following, until you have a dough, knead and set aside.
  • 1/2 c milk
  • 1 egg, slightly beaten
Then, for the filling, you will need
  • 6 eggs
  • 3 oz cream cheese
  • 1/2 c milk
  • 1 lb sausage, cooked and crumbled
  • 1 1/2 c shredded cheddar cheese
Beat the eggs and then mix in the cream cheese, milk, sausage and shredded cheese. Divide your biscuit dough into 24 pieces. Press each piece into the bottom and up the sides of your muffin tin. Bake this in the oven at 400 degrees for 3 minutes. Then pour 1/4 cup of the egg mixture into each cup and bake an additional 12-15 minutes or until the eggs have set and the biscuit cups appear to have browned a bit.
