I enjoyed cooking this recipe. Very flavorful filling. I have also used the filling inside of crescent rolls and baked them.

This is absolutely my new favorite appetizer to serve. So easy to make and so delicious! I do add grated pepper jack cheese to the cream cheese and pepper filling for a little extra zip. Make sure the puff pastry is very cold when rolling the dough and preparing the empanadas. To save on last minute preparation, I often freeze the prepared but uncooked empanadas. I usually take them from the freezer and place them in the refrigerator for an hour before popping them in the oven to cook.

Store bought pie dough, fresh pasta dough, and masa would be alternatives to the puff pastry. This recipe opens up all sorts of possibilities for varying the filling.

Delightful! Easy to make and they were perfect little appetizers for a picnic at a winery. Using the puff pastry was brilliant. And with the extra pastry, I just cut out a couple square pastries stuffed them with the cream cheese and poblano. They didn't look cute like the other half moon empanadas but they tasted great just the same. These were a hit and I'll definitely make them again!

I baked these a few days ago, they were good but make them fast, if pastry gets warm it's impossible to roll out. I personally think that should have been mentioned in the show.

That dude sucks. Cream cheese is so good. But no this guy has had cream cheese before so we should never use it on the food network. I love quick and simple meals. Keep them coming. Don't listen to fools. Thanks.

No need to waste puff pastry by cutting into rounds and discarding as recommended on the show (excuse me...ru kidding, fold over + make into triangles. Cream cheese w/ anything would be great. Been there, done that...this is not a recipe. I know half moons are traditional empanadas but don't be lazy in your recipes. Thanks.

Just finished making these. Wow! So easy and so delicious. I had everything on hand except for the puff pastry but so worth the trip to the store. I also made her Mexican Chocolate muffins which were out of this world!! I love her recipes!
