BOURSIN PROSCIUTTO PHYLLO CUPS
(Adapted from The Cookie Rookie)

This recipe is perfect for summer - it's not a hot appetizer, and I love that you can just pick it up and go!  These hand held treats are great appetizers for a crowd.  I'll double the recipe for my group of 10.

1 pkg pre-made, frozen mini phyllo cups
1 5.2 oz pkg Garlic & Herb Boursin cheese
6 slices prosciutto, diced
1/2 cup sliced green onion (plus more for garnish, if desired)

Take the phyllo cups out of the freezer and set aside.

In a medium frying pan, fry the prosciutto until crispy. Take off of the heat and drain.


In a medium bowl, mix together the crispy prosciutto, green onion, and boursin.


Scoop a spoonful of the mixture into each phyllo cup, and garnish with more green onion.

Refrigerate until serving.

ROAD TRIP!

We decided to go on a road trip for June's Supper Club.

The group went to Frogtown Cellars for lunch and a wine tasting.

My husband and I were out of town unfortunately, but from the video they sent me privately - trust me, they had a good time....
