Cheesy Stuffing Cups

Submitted by Kitty Kat Cook

"From a Kraft magazine, looks good for Thanksgiving. *Update* I did make these for Thanksgiving, and everyone loved how the stuffing was baked, and crunchy. I added some chopped white onions as well to sautee with the celery."

I didn't get around to making these until I roasted my Christmas Turkey for a late Easter Dinner. I didn't put the cheese on top, just mixed it all in. I loved these and so did my family. The cranberries are a nice touch. An easy to make variety to a traditional meal, or a nice addition to left overs.
