Goodbye 2009! Hello 2010 and a Giveaway!




I am not quite done blogging all of my holiday treats, but I wanted to get this up today. Last night we went to a New Years Eve party. I offered to bring something to the party. I decided to use the coupons for free Pillsbury crescents that they went me and let my blog readers decide what I should take!

The winner of the poll was Crescent Bacon-Cheese Tartlets.

I made 2 different versions and made some changes. I will link to the original recipe so you can have it. Below is my take on it.

Ingredients:
Bacon and cheddar version:
1 can of Pillsbury crescent seamless dough sheet
Shredded sharp cheddar cheese
chopped green onion
1 egg
3 tbsp whipping cream

Mushroom and garlic version:
1 can Pillsbury crescent seamless dough sheet
1/4 tsp minced garlic
1 tbsp butter
Mushrooms (sorry I didn't measure - it was about 2 palm fulls)
Shredded sharp cheddar cheese
chopped green onion
1 egg
3 tbsp whipping cream


Saute the mushroom, garlic and butter or fry your bacon.
 

Unroll your dough and cut into 12 pieces.

Place 1 in each greased mini muffin cup
 

Put cheese in the cup

Top with onion, bacon or mushroom mixture.

 
 

Mix whipping cream and egg with a whisk and then put about 1tbsp of mixture on each tartlet
 

Bake at 375 for about 15 mins.
 

I didn't get a chance to taste before we went, so I was a little nervous to serve something I haven't tasted. They were served at room temp, because we had to travel to DC and they cooled on the ride. Well - within 1 min of the foil being off, half the mushroom was gone. People were freaking out about them. One guy had 4! The bacon went a little slower, but not because they weren't as good, but more because of people's diet preferences at the party. These didn't last long, next time I make them for a party, I will probably make double.
This recipe was really easy to make and didn't take much time at all. I highly recommend it!

How would you like to get 2 coupons for free crescents and 3 little serving platters?

Well, Pillsbury sent them to me, and also said I could offer 1 reader their own. So - leave a comment with your favorite Pillsbury recipe, or one you would like to try from their website by Sat Jan 9 and Sunday Jan 10 I will use random.org and pick a winner! You can submit 1 recipe a day for more chances to win!
