Directions

1Preheat the oven to 325 degrees.

4Press the mixture into the bottoms of the muffin cups to make a thick bottom crust. Bake until set, 5 - 6 minutes. Let cool completely.

5Beat the cheeses together until smooth.

7Add the garlic, tarragon, and salt and pepper.

9Cool at room temperature for at least an hour.

Can be made ahead and frozen.
