Press each slice of bread, buttered side up, gently into the bottom of
a muffin cup. Transfer to oven and bake for 3 minutes.
3. Gently press ham into each bread cup. Carefully, crack one egg on
top of ham. Repeat process until all bread cups are filled. Season
each with salt and pepper; top with 1/2 teaspoon cream.

cups from muffin tin and transfer to a serving plate. Garnish with
chives and cheese; serve immediately.
