Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
• ½ teaspoon ground cayenne pepper
• 1 (17.5 ounce) package frozen puff pastry sheets, thawed
• 2 green onions, chopped
• 1 clove garlic, crushed
• 1 (6 ounce) can crabmeat, drained and flaked
• 3 cups fresh chopped mushrooms

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

Step 2

Heat the olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Stir in the mushrooms, green onions, garlic and cayenne pepper. Cook 10 minutes, or until tender. Transfer the mushroom mixture to a medium bowl. Blend in the cream cheese and crabmeat.

Step 3

On a lightly floured flat surface, roll each pastry sheet into a 12x12 inch square. Cut each sheet into nine 4x4 inch squares. Place 1 tablespoon of the mushroom mixture onto each pastry square. Fold the squares by bringing the corners to the center, creating an X. Place the squares on a medium baking sheet.

Step 4

Bake 20 minutes in the preheated oven, or until golden brown.
