Lasagna Cupcakes

Posted by on Dec 28, 2010 in Desserts, Dinner, Lunch, Recipes | 5 comments

Apparently I am almost a year late on this trend.  Either way, they were amazing.

Lasagna Cupcakes
4 buttered 6 ounce ramekins (or muffins trays, smaller or larger ramekins)
3/4 cup Parmegiano-Reggiano cheese
1/3 box lasagna noodles, boiled until al dente
1 cup ricotta
2 tbsp chives, chopped
8 ounces prosciutto, diced
1 egg
8 ounced Fontina cheese, shredded
salt and pepper to taste

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Sprinkle Parmesan cheese into butter ramekins  and tap around until coated.

In a small bowl, mix ricotta, chives, prosciutto, and egg.  Salt and pepper to taste.

Cut Lasagna noodles to fit ramekins.  Spoon ricotta mixture into bottom of each ramekin to form a thin layer.  Layer with lasagna noodles.  Sprinkle with fontina cheese.  Repeat until ramekin is filled to desired height.

Top each ramekin with foil.  Don’t press hard or else the cheese will stick to the foil.  Bake for 30 minutes.  Remove foil and bake for another 10 minutes.  Broil on low for 2-5 minutes or until cheese is browned.

    Yum! I actually haven't seen these before, but they look awesome! Ramekins were in my stocking for Christmas, so I'm definitely ready for these :) I hope you had a great Christmas and are still enjoying the holiday season :)
