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.
