Prosciutto Asparagus Puff Pastry Bundles (appetizer)

By -

Super easy, great WOW factor – they look like they took hours to make vs. just 30 minutes.

Recipes adapted from: completelydelicious.com

Ingredients

  •     12 slices prosciutto
  •     1 egg beaten
  •     1 bunch asparagus (about 12-16 ounces) ends trimmed
  •     2 sheets frozen puff pastry thawed
  •     8 ounces Gruyere shredded
  •     1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  •     kosher salt
  •     pepper

Instructions

  1.    First, Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper.
  2.    Then, On a lightly floured surface, roll the puff pastry out to a large rectangle about double the original size. Square off edges and cut into 6 squares. (I use a pizza cutter to do this).
  3.     Toss asparagus in olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
  4.     To make the bundles, place slice of prosciutto on top of the square.  I folded the prosciutto in half so that it fit nicely on the square.  Follow with 3-4 stalks of asparagus (depending on size) and 1-2 tablespoons of cheese.
  5.     Lift two opposite corners of the puff pastry squares and wrap them around the asparagus and press to seal. Brush puff pastry with egg wash. Sprinkle with more salt and pepper if desired.
  6.     Bake until puff pastry is golden and puffed, about 12-15 minutes. Serve immediately.

I didn't have enough powdered sugar, so I only added about 1/3 cup and a little vanilla. With the outer coating of sugar, it plenty sweet. I had several unroll on me which didn't affect the taste, but if I make it to take somewhere, I want them to look nice. I THINK they unrolled because didn't leave a clean edge for sealing. I shouldn't have pushed the cream cheese all the way up to the edge. We'll probably use toothpicks when we make them for an event...

Whipped Shortbread Cookies - New Year Recipes

Very similar to a recipe I used to use. I find it’s more like 9-10 dozen though! I use salted butter and add about 1.5 tsp vanilla. I cook at 290 for about 25 minutes. You really must let them cool on the tray before removing. Also if your butter doesn’t turn lighter coloured and soft looking them your dough won’t pull together. If your dough doesn’t pull together your cookies won’t work. Recipe Apdated From: www.chatelaine.com Ingredients 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour 1 cup unsalted butter 1/2 cup powdered sugar 1/4 teaspoon salt 1/4 cup cornstarch sprinkles Instructions First, Preheat the oven to 300F degrees and line cookie sheets with parchment paper or baking mats.  Then, In a large bowl beat the butter and powdered sugar until very fluffy and aerated (at least 5 minutes.
