In this recipe, the vol-au-vents are made with puff pastry but they can also be bought pre-made. They are filled with a delicious cream of mushrooms and parsley!
Roll out the pastry with a rolling pin until thin and let it rest for 30 minutes.
Using a fluted round cutter, cut out 24 circles.
Moisten a baking tray and place 8 circles evenly on the tray. Prick the circles with a fork and moisten the edges with water. Place another circle on top and use a smaller round cutter to make an incision on top. Repeat with one more layer of puff pastry in circles.
Brush the last layer with a beaten egg mixed with a little water (do not brush the edge as it prevents rising)
Let cool in the refrigerator for 30 minutes and preheat the oven to 220 degrees.
Bake for 30 minutes and remove from the oven. Carefully take off the lid and using a spoon, empty the vol-au-vents. Put back in the oven at 150 degrees for 5-15 minutes.
In a skillet, sauté the garlic and onion in a little butter.
Add the mushrooms until they release all their juice, then add the parsley, salt, and pepper.
Melt the Velveeta cheese with the cream and stir. Add the cheese and cream to the mushrooms. Adjust salt to taste.
Serve hot on top of the vol-au-vents.
