Ham & Cheese Tarts

2 packages (3 ounces each) cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup French onion dip
1 tablespoon milk
1/4 teaspoon ground mustard
1/4 teaspoon grated orange peel
1/2 cup finely chopped fully-cooked ham
1 tube (12 ounces) refrigerated buttermilk biscuits
1/4 teaspoon paprika

In a small mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese, onion dip, milk, mustard and orange peel until blended. Stir in ham.

Split each biscuit into thirds; press into lightly greased miniature muffin cups. Spoon a scant tablespoonful of ham mixture into each cup; sprinkle with paprika. Bake at 375 degrees for 12–17 minutes or until golden brown. Serve warm.

Yield: 2 1⁄2 dozen.
