24 tartlets

Preparation

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Brush 24 tiny muffin tins (1 1/2 inches in diameter) with the butter.
  2. Using a 3-inch-diameter biscuit cutter or a glass, cut a circle from the center of each slice of bread. Carefully fit a circle of bread into each muffin tin, pressing it in gently so it covers the bottom and sides.
  3. Place a tomato half, cut side up, into each muffin tin. Sprinkle with the cheese.
  4. Place in the oven and bake for 5 minutes or so, until the bread is lightly toasted. Remove the tartlets from the tins. Serve warm.
