For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of chili powder or a dash of hot sauce to the sausage mixture.
If you don't have a 4-inch cookie cutter, you can use a small bowl or jar lid as a template.
Feel free to substitute the Cheddar cheese with another type of cheese, such as Monterey Jack or pepper jack, to customize the flavor.
These tarts can be made ahead of time and reheated. Store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

    I made these for a potluck, and they were gone in minutes! I'll definitely be making them again.

    I substituted pepper jack cheese for the cheddar, and it added a nice kick!

  • Rebekah Satterfield

    The crust didn't get as brown as I wanted it to. Next time, I'll try brushing the crust with egg wash before baking.
