    The website that I got this recipe from (ourbestbites.com) has really good pictures of how to make this. You will want to defrost the puff pastry ahead of time as it takes quite a while to defrost. I usually make a double batch so I can freeze some for an easy second meal. (Debbie Jones)

Number of Servings:

Ingredients:

  1. 1 boxes - Puff pastry Pepperidge Farms in freezer section
  2. 8 ounces - Cream cheese (chive and onion flavor)
  3. 1/2 cups - Shredded mozzarella cheese
  4. 1 1/2 cups - Cooked, shredded chicken breast
  5. 1/3 cups - Cooked crumbled bacon
  6. 3 tablespoons - Finely chopped sun-dried tomatoes
  7. 1 whole - Egg
  8. 1 tablespoons - Water

Directions:

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

Warm cream cheese in the microwave for 20-30 seconds to soften. Place in a mixing bowl with mozzarella cheese, chicken, bacon, and sun-dried tomatoes. Stir to combine and set aside.

Defrost puff pastry sheets according to package directions. Lightly dust a work surface with flour and roll one sheet at a time into a 12 x 12 inch square. Cut 4, 3 inch strips each direction to make 16 squares, 3 x 3″ each.

Place about 2 teaspoons of cream cheese mixture onto each square. With your finger, brush a dab of water around the edges of each square and fold over diagonally to make a triangle. Press edges together and crimp with a fork to seal.

After stuffing and folding each pastry, place on a baking sheet. Whisk egg and 1 tablespoon water together and brush over the top of each pastry.

Bake in preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until puffed and golden brown. Cool 10 minutes before serving. Can also be served at room temperature.

Freezer Instructions
Follow directions through egg wash. Place baking sheet in the freezer. When pastries are solid to the touch, transfer to an airtight container and store in the freezer. When ready to bake, place frozen pastries directly on a baking sheet in preheated 400 degree oven and bake for 15-20 minutes or until puffed and golden.
