  • 4 oz. cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Mix the Artichoke Dip ingredients in a medium bowl, using only 1/2 cup mozzarella, and then set aside.
  2. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Lightly spray two 24-count mini muffin pans with nonstick cooking spray.
  3. Unfold the thawed pastries onto a lightly floured surface. Using your pizza cutter, cut each pastry sheet into 36 squares, for a total of 72 squares. To cut each sheet into 36 squares, cut each sheet in thirds along fold lines, then each third in half. Finally, cut six even rows.
  4. Add two dough squares perpendicular to each other in 36 muffin cups, as illustrated in the above photo, pressing down in the center to create an indent for filling. (Note that they will only fill half of the second muffin pan.)
  5. Fill each dough cup with 1 tablespoon of Artichoke Dip. Top dough cups evenly with the remaining 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese.
  6. Bake at 400 for 15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and turning golden. Wait 5 minutes before removing from the muffin tin. Garnish with parsley and bacon, if desired.
