SHRIMP IN PHYLLO CUPS



Shrimp in Phyllo Cups image

I almost didn't make these appetizers for last year's Christmas party because I was running out of time, but I knew they'd be a tasty hit. Simple to make, the cups have few ingredients and look beautiful on the plate-very gourmet! This turned out to be one of the night's favorites, and they just flew off the plate. -Terri Edmunds, Naperville, Illinois
