I love this recipe! It is the best, the easiest and the most impressive looking appie I've ever made. I had a non-onion eater in my group so I substitued finely chopped celery for the onions and this worked fine. (I'm sure the onion version would be even better.)I used about 10 drops of Louisian Hot Sauce and still barely felt a kick so next time I may add cayenne or garnish with cayenne. I had extra filling so put it in a small dish with a knife and crackers and it disappeared!

These were scrumptious! I made them the first time for an appetizer cook-off -- and won first place!! The only thing I did differently was to add onion salt in place of onion. The second time I made this, I used both swiss and sharp cheddar cheese.

These were okay. I made them for a party and I bought a bunch of the phyllo cups to fill with different mixtures. These seemed to be the least popular. I think if I made them again I would leave out the shrimp. I think they would have been better with just the crab.

Great recipe - I added 4 slices of minced ham and some old bay seasoning and a dash of paprika.

I did not change a thing with this recipe. Excellent, will make again. These freeze well also.

These were O.K. If I make them again I will probably add some crushed red pepper to give some more zip.

I baked three first to try them and then added more hot sauce and 3 ounces of cream cheese. This made them taste much better, with more flavor.

Rave reviews from this recipe! I also add more hot sauce than recipe calls for.

I had some phyllo dough that needed to be used so I made my own tarts by using 4 buttered sheets of phyllo, layered on top of one another. I cut the layered sheet into 6 equal squares & tucked them into standard size muffin tins that I had sprayed w/ Pam. I had a bit of trouble getting the first one out but then I let the others cool a bit before giving them a twist & popping them out w/ the aid of a knife. For the cheese filling, I did add Old Bay seasoning & additional hot sauce & worcestershire, as well as some dried parsley & thyme. Instead of sprinkling the top w/ paprika after baking, I sprinkled the top w/ dried parsley before baking. These were so good & so filling that my husband & I made our appetizer into our meal. All we did was add a salad.

Not a big hit at my party. They taste better when they are hot, but they are hard to keep hot. And I just didn't think they tasted all that special.

What a hit!! I made this for a wine group and they were gone in no time. I does make alot of extra filling, so the next day I spread in on a pita and broiled it. Yummy!

Absolutely fabulous recipe! Taking into account others comments, here's some clarification: Use 1 teaspoon of tobasco sauce, as you never can tell how much 10 drops are. Add a good dash or three of Old Bay Seasoning and about 1/2 tsp of crushed red pepper. Use Fillo frozen fully cooked pastry shells. Used hubby as a ginea pig last night and he ate a whole sheet of these yummy morsels! Excellent with a nice chilled white to compliment the creamy seafood taste. My next party will be a hit. And you can easily keep the simple ingredients for this recipe on hand to whip up in a moments notice to wow drop-in visitors!

Was good, I was just hoping for better. Guests seemed to enjoy them.

I am giving it three stars which in this case was high, but I feel terrible giving it anything lower since I didn't follow the recipe exactly. I was out of phyllo dough when I decided to make for the Super Bowl yesterday so I used ready made pie crusts. Everything else was exact except I did add some garlic powder and used fresh seafood. My husband took one bite and that was enough, I took a bite of the rest and it was enough for me too. Sorry Mary Beth!!!!

I made these appetizers for New Years and they were a hit (at least with the seafood lovers in the crowd). Very Easy to make! I bought 3 boxes of Phyllo Shells and still had extra filling which I used on crackers then. I will most certainly make this yummy treat again.

I tried these for a Thanksgiving appetizer this year and they were so good, I've made them several times since to rave reviews everytime. Easy to prepare in advance and easy to heat up once cooked as well. Thanks for sharing!

rave reviews but I add some more spice. I tried Old Bay Seasoning and everyone loved it
