I've made this several times for parties. Always a big hit.

I used a homemade puff pastry and it was very good. However, many of the guests were a little weirded out by the chives. I would leave them off next time, I think.

Very disappointed in the pastry. Think I am going to modify this the next time with an alt pastry to build up on. Everything else was good, and melded together nicely.

I was out of chives so made it w/out but will add them next time. This was a hit with my family! It was requested that this be part of our yearly Christmas menu!

I brought this to an office party. Everyone loved it. It was fast and easy to make. I will be making this again.
