Remove shells from cups with tongs and cool on racks. Repeat procedure with other baking sheet. Shells may be made 3 days ahead and chilled, covered, or 1 month ahead and frozen in airtight containers. Bring shells to room temperature and recrisp in a 300°F. oven 10 minutes.

    In a small bowl stir together sour cream, horseradish, and parsley and transfer to a small pastry bag fitted with 1/8-inch plain tip.

    Step 5

    Fold a few beef slices into each shell and pipe 1 teaspoon horseradish cream onto each pudding. Garnish puddings with parsley.
