Spanish Olive Cream Cheese Canapes Zwt 8 Recipes

Steps:

• Set oven to 375 degrees.
• Set oven rack to middle position.
• Cut out about 40 rounds with a 1-1/2 - 2-inch round cookie or biscuit cutter (can use end of a small glass but be very careful not to break glass, a biscuit cutter works the best!).
• Place on a large baking sheet and brush one side with melted butter.
• Bake for about 8 minutes, or until golden brown (leave the toasts on the baking sheet).
• Set oven to broiler heat.
• In a bowl mix together cream cheese, olives, green onion or scallions, red bell pepper and paprika (add a couple teaspoons of dry sherry in if you have some) mix until well combined.
• Top each toast with about 1 teaspoon of the cream cheese mixture, then sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese.
• Broil 4-inches from heat until the Parmesan begins to turn golden (about 1 minute).

Steps:

• Put oven rack in middle position & preheat oven to 375°F
• Cut 40 sml rounds from bread slices w/cutter, then brush 1 side of ea round w/butter & bake on a lrg baking sheet until pale golden (about 8 min). Remove from oven, but leave toasts on baking sheet. Preheat broiler.
• Finely grate Parmigiano-Reggiano using rasp (yield = approx 1 cup). You may use a pre-grated variety if able to find.
• Mash together cream cheese, olives, scallion, bell pepper, paprika & sherry until combined well. Then top each toast w/1 tsp cream cheese mixture & sprinkle w/grated Parmigiano-Reggiano.
• Broil canapés about 4 in from heat until Parmigiano-Reggiano begins to turn golden (about 1 min).
• COOK NOTES: Toasts can be made 1 dy ahead, cooled completely & then kept in an airtight container at room temperature. The cream cheese mixture can be made 1 dy ahead (chill & cover). Bring to room temp before using.
• MY TIP: My choice would be to brush the bread slices while still whole & then cut the rounds. This would mean far less time spent handling 40 sml pieces of bread.
