Shrimp Napoleons Recipe

Prep: 20 min. Bake: 15 min. + cooling

Yield: 36 Servings

20 15 35

Ingredients

1 package (17.3 ounces) frozen puff pastry, thawed
2 packages (3 ounces each) cream cheese, softened
1 tablespoon thinly sliced green onion
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
2-1/2 cups chopped cooked peeled shrimp
1/3 cup finely shredded carrot
4 bacon strips, cooked and crumbled

Directions

Line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Unfold one puff pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface. Cut sheet into nine squares, about 3 in. Cut each square in half, forming 18 rectangles.
Place on one prepared baking sheet. Repeat with remaining puff pastry. Bake at 425° for 12-15 minutes or until puffed and golden brown. Remove to a wire rack to cool.
In a small bowl, beat the cream cheese, onion, mustard and Worcestershire sauce until well blended. Stir in the shrimp, carrot and bacon.
To assemble, use a fork to split each pastry in half horizontally. Spread a rounded tablespoonful of cream cheese mixture over the bottom halves; replace tops. Refrigerate until serving. Yield: 3 dozen.
