Steps:
- 1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line the ramekins with nonstick aluminum foil and place on a baking sheet.
- 2. Stack 2 slices of ham directly on top of each other and fit into a ramekin to form a cup, making sure the ends of the ham hang over the ramekin slightly. Repeat with the remaining ham. Dividing evenly, sprinkle half of the cheese into the bottoms of the ham cups. Crack an egg into each and add 1 tablespoon cream. Divide the rest of the cheese, 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper evenly among the cups.
- 3. Bake until the egg whites are set and the yolks are still soft, 20 to 24 minutes, rotating the baking sheet halfway; some cups may cook faster than others. Sprinkle with the chives and then carefully lift the ham cups out of the foil so you do not tear the ham or break the shape of the cup. Place on a large platter or on individual plates and serve.

SCRAMBLED EGGS IN A CUP
My grandmother passed down this recipe after I had my son. This was one of his very first foods. Its easy to make, easy to clean up and easy to feed. Even the pickiest of toddlers will devour this simple easily digestible meal. After 10 years my son still asks for his eggs to be made this way and can even make them himself. It is still his favorite way to eat his eggs :) Also makes a quick on the go breakfast you can eat in your car. For adults add salt and pepper with your favorite cheese, spices or ketchup.
