I made these for New Year's Eve appetizers and they were wonderful. Lovely blend of flavours and textures. Gone in no time at all - best make up a double batch. Ingredients:
1 sheet frozen puff pastry, thawed for 30 minutes (1/2 package) |
2 very ripe juicy fragrant pears, peeled and chopped |
2 tablespoons sugar |
4 ounces blue cheese, crumbled |
dried cranberries or dried cherries |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 400F.
2. Toss pears in sugar.
3. Set aside.
4. Roll pastry out into a 14 inch square on a lightly floured board.
5. Cut into 36 equal squares.
6. Place each in a mini muffin pan.
7. Place equal amounts of pear and blue cheese in pastry lined pans.
8. Top each with 2 or 3 dried cherries or cranberries.
9. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, until puffed and golden.
10. Serve warm.
