    2. Place two heat proof gratin dishes such as our Black Clay Round Serving Dish with Handles in the center of the oven along with a tsp. of butter in each.
    3. Once the butter has melted, crack two eggs into each dish and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
    4. Drizzle 2 tbs. of the crema in each dish, starting over the yolks and working it all around, then sprinkle 1 ½ tbs. cheese and 1 tsp. chopped chives over the dish.
    5. Place the dishes in the oven and bake at 425°F or until the eggs are bubbly and browned on the edges but not quite set in the middle (about 5 minutes).

    7. Remove from the oven and serve; the eggs will continue to set.
