Chicken Macadamia Appetizers Jan Peterson
1 c. chicken, chopped
1/4 c. vegetable cream cheese
1/4 c. chopped green onions
1/3 c. coarsely chopped macadamia nuts or almonds
1 pkg. Refrigerated Pie Crusts, softened
Water
½ c. Italian Bread crumbs
Heat oven to 400°. Combine chicken, cream cheese, onions and nuts. Mix well. Using a 2 1/4 inch round cutter, cut 16 rounds from each pie crust (must be very close together). Spoon about 1 heaping teaspoon chicken mixture onto center of each of the 16 rounds. Brush edges with water. Fold over into a crescent and pinch edges together with fork. Brush top and bottom of each appetizer with water; coat generously with bread crumbs. Place on ungreased cookie sheet. Prick top of each appetizer with fork. Bake at 400° for 18 - 23 minutes or until golden brown. Cool 5 minutes.
