Curried Chicken Puffs

Everytime I make these, they are everyone's favourite new treat! No one will be disappointed! I have requests for these all the time.

Both shells and filling can be made ahead and assembled when needed. The shells can be frozen for up to a month, then thawed at room temperature an hour before filling. The filling can be made up to two days before and refrigerated. Heat the filling gently, and serve immediately in the shells.Submitted by: QUEENYEESH
