"Plain fresh bread, its crust shatteringly crisp. Sweet cold butter. There is magic in the way they come together in your mouth to make a single perfect bite."--Ruth Reichl

Directions:
For cups: Cut a 3-inch round from each slice of bread. Using a rolling pin, roll each slice flat and brush both sides with melted butter. Press buttered slices into 2-inch muffin pans. Bake 450º 5 mins. Remove from oven.

For filling: Melt the 3 T. butter in medium saucepan. Add flour to butter and cook, stirring until bubbly. Stir in milk and cook stirring until thick. Stir in cheese, shrimp, onion, lemon juice, parsley, Dijon mustard and salt. Fill each cup with 1 T. of the filling. Sprinkle with paprika.

Arrange the filled cups on baking sheets and freeze until firm. After cups are frozen, bag them in freezer zip locs.

To serve: Bake frozen cups at 400º for 15 to 20 mins., until cheese bubbles. Makes 48 cups.

A 3" round is a cookie cutter. A 2" muffin pan is a miniature muffin pan.
