My mom, for a while, made cocktail food for her friends. I used to help with canapés, filling cookies with jam or dulce de leche, and of course, making this classic Chilean appetizer in puff pastry cups … in fact, we once bought a new brand. After filling them, we realized that the dough was sweet, the most disgusting thing ever. Luckily, it did not leave the house.
My mom did: mushrooms, shrimp, leeks, and peppers. All these fillings are based on a thick white sauce with parmesan cheese. You can mix and play.
