Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Line a 12-cup muffin tin with one slice of prosciutto per cup, pressing the prosciutto slices gently to form a cup shape.
Bake the prosciutto cups in the preheated oven for 7-8 minutes, or until they are crispy but still flexible. Remove from the oven and allow them to cool slightly.
While the prosciutto cups are cooling, prepare the filling. In a medium bowl, mix the softened cream cheese, grated Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, chopped parsley, and black pepper until smooth and well combined.
Divide the cream cheese mixture evenly among the cooled prosciutto cups, using a spoon or piping bag to fill each cup.
Top each filled cup with half of a cherry tomato for added freshness and color.
Bake the filled prosciutto cups for an additional 5 minutes, until the filling is warmed through and the tops are slightly golden.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before serving. Garnish with additional chopped parsley if desired.
