Directions
1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease 4 muffin cups with butter (leave space in between the muffin cups).

Cut puff pastry sheet into 4 squares and place into the greased muffin cups in such a way that the 4 corners are draping over the sides. Brush bottom and sides of the puff pastry with Dijon mustard.
3
Cut each slice of bacon into 4 pieces and drape 3 bacon slices around the tops of the muffin holes.
4
Break eggs individually into a small bowl without breaking the yolks and slide into the muffin cups.
5
Bake in the preheated oven until puff pastry is lightly browned and eggs are set, 22 to 27 minutes.

Remove from oven, season with salt and pepper, and sprinkle with chives.
