PlayFood: Puffs Filled with Shrimp

"Uno Shrimpo"

(Adapted from “Tea-time at the Inn” by Gail Greco)

150 mini cream puff-type pastries (but NOT cream-filled - buy or see below to make)
filling (see below)

Make pastries up to a day ahead.  On the morning of the Ball, insert a teaspoon or more
of the shrimp filling into each pastry.  Refrigerate until time to serve.

Filling:

2 # cooked cocktail shrimp, thawed if originally frozen
2 # cream cheese, softened
½ tsp. salt
4 Tbsp. curry powder, or to taste

Place all ingredients in a food processor.  Blend well.  Can be made a day ahead and kept
refrigerated until ready to use.

Puffs:
I don’t have a recipe yet, but will have one soon.
