Do you have to fix the dough for this? Can you just use the egg from the dough and mix with the filling, and line your muffin tins with disposable liners or cook them in silicone oven-safe muffin molds?

If I had to divide up eggs with a fractional amount for one thing, I'd mix them all at once and pour off the fraction of the mix that I needed for that part.

I used muffin molds. But the disposable liners might just as well have worked.

Thanks. I'm going to try it this weekend and let you know how they turn out.
