This was the first time I have ever tried something like this, and it turned out GREAT! It was a hit for the whole family! It is quite simple to make. These make great appetizers for a football party, birthday, or just a treat! If you have a bit of left over filling you can use as a dip!

(If doubling, 1 1/2 the filling (not double), had a bit left over, unless want to use for dip)

Ingredients:

1 sheet puff pastry dough, thawed (found in frozen isles, takes 40 minutes to thaw)

4 ounce cream cheese, softened

2 tablespoons mayo

12 ounces crab meat (fresh or fake)

2 green onions, chopped

2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice

1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon pepper 

1-egg (for egg wash)

Directions:

(1)  Preheat oven to 400'

(2) Cut pastry dough into 16 squares 

(3) In a large bowl, combine cream cheese, mayo, green onions, lemon juice, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Fold in crab meat.

(4) Add a spoonful of filling DIAGONALLY into center of puff pastry square.

(5) fold opposite corners together and tuck under sealing TIGHTLY (it looks like a hot dog roll up only folded and not rolled)

(6) Beat 1 egg in a small bowl, brush over the tops of puffs.              

Bake on a piece of parchment paper for easy clean up, or use foil and spray with cooking spray at 400' for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown. 

(I doubled the recipe and it took 20 minutes)

ENJOY!
