Stir in the salt and egg; set aside.4 In a small bowl, using a fork, combine the pesto and softened cream cheese until blended.5 Spoon a rounded tablespoon of potato mixture into each muffin cup, pressing the spoon against the bottom and sides of the cup to make a small impression in the middle.6 Spoon 1 teaspoon of pesto mixture into the impression of each cup.7 Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown.
