Garlic Shrimp Puffs

Garlic Shrimp Puffs

Just Baked Garlic Shrimp Puffs

I made these for lunch today and was very pleased with the way they turned out. Using just 4 ingredients and half an hour to prepare, these puffs were perfect because I was pressed for time. It’s worth experimenting with the flavored cream cheese varieties, such as chive & onion flavor, which will allow you to omit garlic powder to make it a 3-ingredient recipe! There was no need to add salt because the cream cheese and shrimp naturally contain salt.

Ingredients:

4 oz. Philadelphia cream cheese

1 tsp. garlic powder

1 (8 oz. 100-200 ct.) pkg. cooked salad shrimp

1 (8 count) can Pillsbury refrigerator crescent rolls or puff pastry

Directions:

1.   Preheat oven to 350°F 

2. Line a cookie sheet with aluminum foil & spray with no stick spray.

2.   Mix cream cheese, garlic and shrimp until well combined.

3.   Unroll crescent rolls and cut each triangle into 2 triangles.

4.   Place 1 tsp. shrimp mixture on center of each triangle and fold corners in over shrimp.

5.   Place on cookie sheet and spray tops of puffs with butter flavored spray.

6.   Bake at 350°F for 11-14 minutes or until crust is golden brown.
