BEAUTIFUL EGG BLOSSOMS

Steps:

• Grease or spray cooking spray on muffin tin (4 muffins).
• Place one sheet of phyllo dough on work surface.
• Brush with butter and top with another sheet of phyllo.
• Brush again with butter.
• Repeat a third time.
• Cut into 4 squares (about 4 1/2 inches each).
• Keep the remaining phyllo sheets wrapped, so that they don't dry out
• Place each sqaure into one muffin cup.
• Using your fingers, make each square of dough into a "blossom" by crimping the edges together. In other words, you are making a dough square fit into a round muffin cup.
• Sprinkle 1 t cheese into each dough cup.
• Top with one egg (of course, you crack the egg and add the raw egg, trying not to break the yolk).
• Sprinkle each egg with salt, pepper, and green onions.
• Bake at 350 until pastry is golden (about 25-30 minutes).
• Top with salsa.

• NOTE: The kisses are added AFTER the cooked cookies come out of the oven.
• Pour some sugar into a cake pan or pie plate, for rolling the cookies inches.
• Shape dough into balls (rounded teaspoonfuls).
• Roll balls in sugar, and place on ungreased baking sheet.
• Bake at 375 F for 5 minutes, then turn pans, reverse positions, and bake 5 minutes more.
• Remove pan from oven and top each cookie immediately with a Hershey's kiss. Twist it slightly as you press down lightly, to help it bond with the cookie.

POINSETTIA BLOSSOMS

Steps:

• Beat butter, sugar, vanilla, food color, egg and cream cheese in large bowl with electric mixer on medium speed, or mix with spoon. Stir in flour. Cover and refrigerate about 2 hours or until firm.
• Shape dough into 1 1/4-inch balls; roll in red sugar. Cover and refrigerate 1 hour.
• Heat oven to 375°F. Place balls about 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheet. Make 6 cuts with sharp knife in top of each ball about three-fourths of the way through to make 6 wedges. Spread wedges apart very slightly to form flower petals (cookies will separate and flatten as they bake).
• Bake 10 to 12 minutes or until set and edges begin to brown. Immediately press 1 candy in center of each cookie. Carefully remove from cookie sheet to wire rack.
