Eggs in a Nest

Description
A wonderful breakfast or brunch.
Ingredients
6 tablespoons butter, melted
2 cloves garlic, minced
3 sheets phyllo dough, thawed

4 eggs
Salt and pepper
2 tablespoons water or sour cream
1 tablespoon butter
1 cup diced Smithfield Spiral Sliced Ham
1 cup grated cheddar cheese


Preparation
Preheat oven to 350°F. Butter 4 muffin cups. In small bowl, combine melted butter and garlic. On cutting board, stack 3 phyllo sheets and cut into fourths, forming 12 squares. Cover phyllo with damp paper towel when not in use because it dries out quickly. Press 1 phyllo square (1 sheet thick) into bottom of each muffin cup. (Don't worry if phyllo tears.) Brush with butter. Add another layer of phyllo and brush with butter. Repeat a third time. Bake 10 minutes. Carefully remove phyllo baskets from muffin cups and cool on wire rack.
In medium bowl beat eggs; add salt and pepper to taste with water or sour cream. Melt 1 tablespoon butter in medium skillet and add eggs. Sprinkle ham over eggs. Scramble eggs to desired doneness. Sprinkle in cheese and stir until melted. Spoon into phyllo baskets. Sprinkle tops with a little more cheese.
