Stuffed Artichoke Pastries

That Retirement Party deserves some extra special treats for the guests of honor. You'll find that you are just as honored as anyone with these delightful Stuffed Artichoke Pastries. They are just oh so creamy and tasty.

1 PKG frozen pastry shells (6), defrosted
8 oz. Chevre cheese, crumbled or feta cheese
1/4 cup cut up onion slices
8 ounces marinated artichoke hearts, drained & chopped
2 Tablespoons sliced black olives
grated paremasan cheese

Stack 3 pastry shells together & roll them out to measure 8" (this makes a big one you can do it like this & have people cut off a slice or make little ones).

Place pastry on a lightly greased cookie sheet.

When you defrost shells don't let them get too soft - just so they are still chilled.

Combine the next 4 ingredients & place in center of pastry leaving a 1" border along the edge. (you can also add some garlic to the mixture)

Roll out the remaining shells in the same fashion & place over the filling. Press & sel the edges with the tines of a fork. Scallop them in a decorative fashion. Pierce top with fork & brush tip with a little water & sprinkle with a little grated parmesan cheese.

You can either bake it now or put it in the fridge until the next day if need be.

Bake in a 400 oven for about 25 minutes or until top is a deep golden brown. place in a platter & cut into wedges to serve. Serves about 6.
I like puff pastries of all kinds and will make up these Avocado stuffed pastries with other things like Baklava and cheesy puffs.
