These really were great. I didn't have any puff pastry so used canned croissants. Pressed two triangles together and followed from #3 instructions on (well cut them about 3/4" thick.) Made these for unexpected guests when "quick and easy" was a necessity. Thanks JoJoStar.

I made these for a dinner party last night and they were great. For the kids I made them with a combo of applewood smoked cheddar, cream cheese and jalapeno havarti. I will be making these again at the next appetizer party I have as I almost got my fingers bit off when I took the last one off the plate.
