Source of Recipe
Aunt Saunny
4 oz. (1/2 of 8-oz. pkg.) PHILADELPHIA Cream Cheese,
softened
1/2 cup finely chopped cooked turkey or chicken
2 green onions, sliced
1/2 tsp. chopped fresh parsley
Salt and pepper
1 pkg. (17-1/4 oz.) frozen puff pastry (2 sheets),
thawed
1 egg
1 Tbsp. milk
PREHEAT oven to 400°F. Mix cream cheese, turkey,
onions and parsley until well blended. Season with
salt and pepper to taste.
PLACE pastry sheets on cutting board. Cut out 22
circles from each pastry sheet, using a 2-inch round
cutter. Beat egg and milk with wire whisk until well
blended.
SPOON 1 tsp. of the turkey mixture onto center of each
pastry circle. Brush edge of pastry with egg mixture.
Fold pastry in half to completely enclose filling;
press edges together to seal. Place on baking sheet;
brush tops with remaining egg mixture.
BAKE 12 to 15 minutes or until golden brown. Serve
immediately.
Make-Ahead
Assemble appetizers as directed but do not brush with
egg mixture. Place in a freezer-weight resealable
plastic bag. Remove excess air from bag and seal bag.
Freeze up to 3 months. When ready to serve, remove
appetizers from freezer and place in a single layer on
baking sheet. Brush with egg mixture. Bake at 400°F
for 15 to 17 minutes or until heated through and
golden brown.
Special Extra
Use a fork to seal the pastry edges - it adds a
decorative edge and prevents the filling from coming
out.
22 servings.
