When I first made these cute little cups, they were a big hit. Now my husband often asks me to fix them for meetings and parties. —Gwendolyn Fae Trapp, Strongsville, Ohio

Ingredients

1 cup diced cooked chicken
3 bacon strips, cooked and crumbled
1/3 cup chopped mushrooms
2 tablespoons chopped pecans
2 tablespoons diced peeled apple
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1/8 teaspoon salt
Dash pepper
20 slices bread
6 tablespoons butter, melted
2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley

Directions

In a small bowl, combine the first 5 ingredients. Combine mayonnaise, salt and pepper; add to chicken mixture and stir to coat. Cover and refrigerate until serving.
Preheat oven to 350°. Cut each slice of bread with a 3-in. round cookie cutter; brush both sides with butter. Press into ungreased mini muffin cups. Bake until golden brown and crisp, 11-13 minutes.
Cool 3 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks to cool completely. Spoon 1 Tbsp. chicken salad into each bread basket. Cover and refrigerate up to 2 hours. Just before serving, sprinkle with parsley.
