Cheddar & Chive Cupcakes

Cupcakes
2 Cups Flour
1 T baking powder
1/2 Tsp baking soda
1 Tsp salt
2 Eggs
1/2 Stick butter, melted
1 Cup shredded cheddar
1 Cup sour cream
1/2 Cup chopped Chives
Pepper to taste
Parsley to taste



Directions
Mix together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.  Add eggs, melted butter, and cheddar, and beat until combined.  It'll look like a crumbly, flakey mess. Add sour cream and chives and mix until combined.   Mixture will be light and fluffy.  Drop by spoonful into greased small muffin pan.  I used a regular sized muffin tin and got 12 decent sized cupcakes.  I added some parsley and pepper to the top of each once they were in the pan.  Bake at 400 degrees for 15 minutes or until golden brown.  Best served warm or reheated in the oven.

Once cooled, I put a little bit of whipped cream cheese and some fresh chives.  They were delicious.  For those who didn't eat them with cream cheese, they were just as delicious with butter.
