Place shells on an ungreased baking sheet; fill with onion mixture.
In a small bowl, combine the cheeses, egg yolk and pepper flakes. Spoon over tops.
Bake 350° 5-8 minutes or until heated through. Top with thyme if desired.
Recommended wine: Cream Sherry, Port, Moscato Dasti
Tartlet on the menu? Try pairing with Cream Sherry, Port, and Moscato d'Asti. A common wine pairing rule is to make sure your wine is sweeter than your food. Delicate desserts go well with Moscato d'Asti, nutty desserts with cream sherry, and caramel or chocolate desserts pair well with port. The NV Solera Cream Sherry with a 4.5 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 17 dollars per bottle.
NV Solera Cream Sherry
The Solera Cream Sherry has a brilliant amber and deep copper hue. With butterscotch and pecan aromas, the sweet salted nut and brown spice aromas carry a complex caramel accent. A sweet entry leads to a rounded, lush, moderately full-bodied palate with a lengthy, flavorful finish.
