Ingredients
  

  • Store-bought frozen puff pastry (397 g) thawed
  • 2-3 tbsp flour for rolling
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 3 brown mushrooms cut into small pieces
  • 6 tbsp cream cheese softened
  • 1 egg
  • 1 cup shredded parmesan cheese

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper - set aside.
  • Sprinkle a clean working surface with flour and rollout puff pastry until it’s about ½ an inch in thickness.
  • Use a paring knife to cut the puff pastry into squares, about 2 inches x 2 inches in size. From 397 grams of puff pastry, you can get approximately 30 squares.
  • Gently place each puff pastry square on the lined baking sheet. Refrigerate while you prepare the mushroom and cheese filling.
  • Melt butter on a small non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add cut mushrooms and cook for about 2 minutes, until sweating. Remove from heat.
  • In a medium-sized bowl, use an electric mixer to slowly beat cream cheese and egg. Once well combined, add parmesan cheese and fold.
  • Remove puff pastry from the refrigerator. Use an offset spatula to scoop about ½ tbsp of cream cheese mixture on the center of each puff pastry. Top off with mushroom mixture.
  • Bake for 17-20 minutes. Allow to cool for a few minutes (and to allow the puff pastry to deflate a little). Serve and enjoy!
