Tip

Place Puff Pastry shells on ungreased baking sheets with “top” facing up. Place pastry shells about 2 inches apart on baking sheet.

To ensure that Puff Pastry shells will rise evenly, score the sides horizontally with a small knife.

Unfilled baked Puff Pastry shells may be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.

Always bake Puff Pastry shells in a preheated 400°F oven. Do not bake shells in a microwave or a toaster oven.

"We made this for the second time last week. Adding heavy cream makes a BIG difference. Also we switched from Swiss Cheese to freshly grated Parmesan cheese."

"My husband and I both love this recipe! I'm making it for guests coming to share Christmas gifts the week before Christmas. I feel confident it will make a big hit. It's also an easy one to have prepared ahead of time so the cook can enjoy the company as well."

"This was so easy to make and it tastes really good! The first time I made this I did use the puff pastries, but the 2nd time I made it I used small pre-sliced baguette bread to save time and it was just as good. The sauce is what makes it taste so good so it doesn't matter what you serve on it. Tonight I am going to serve the sauce over linguine so it will be a pasta dish. Don't add more cheese than what is recommended unless you want it to have a strong taste."

"Delicious, I am making this tonight but will serve it over angel hair pasta. This is my second time making this dish and I will also use Parmesan cheese and light cream. Very impressive looking dish!"
