Cut six 3 inches circles with a pastry cutter. Make a smaller cut 1/4 " inside each case all around but do not cut all the way through.
Place on ungreased baking tray and chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
Brush the tops of the cases with the egg and water glaze and bake at 400 degree for 20 minutes or until well risen and golden.
Cool on a wire rack then carefully remove the lids with a sharp knife and scoop out any uncooked mixture.
Filling.

Fill the prepared cases with the filling, replace the lids and return to a 400 degree oven for another 10 - 15 minutes. Be careful they do not burn.
