Crab Puffs


Crab Puffs-makes 8 nice puffs, served with a fruit salsa is great
½ pound of cooked crab meat (l/2 lb w/ shells, and about l/2-3/4cup of meat only)
2 ounces cream cheese
l/3 cup Parmesan, grated
l/2 cup approximately of brie cheese, no white rind
salt and pepper, and ½ tbsp dill
16 won ton wrappers
2 tsp cornstarch mixed with 2 tsp cold water to seal edges
Oil for frying-canola or peanut oil works best

Filling the won ton wrappers:
Mix everything in a small food processor until smooth, place 1 won ton wrapper down, brush along the edges with cornstarch mixture, place small amount of mixture into center, top with 2nd wrapper.  Make all won tons, then, heat oil on medium heat, ready when a chopstick starts to sizzle.  Fry each on both sides until golden brown, and drain on a paper towel. Hope you like them.


This filling makes an amazing cold cracker topper as a great amus bouche too.
