Chicken Cordon Bleu Cups are a tasty option for making individual serving portions for everyday meals and entertaining. Buttery puff pastry cups are filled with rotisserie chicken, smoked ham and Swiss cheese. Baked until golden they get a sprinkle of fresh chives for color just before serving as a main dish or buffet party food.

Easy Chicken Cordon Bleu Cups Recipe

Muffin pans are rock stars for making far more than muffins and cupcakes. In fact, I fill them with so many different single serving foods that I feel I really get my money’s worth out of my purchase. Baked eggs, smoky bacon macaroni and cheese muffins, these chili cheese cornbread muffins smothered with chili and sour cream are among our very favorite muffin pan goodies. How to make Chicken Cordon Bleu Cups with puff pastry:

Crust – Puff pastry thawed per the package instructions.
Chicken – Rotisserie chicken or roasted chicken.
Ham – Fully cooked Deli or baked ham.
Sauce – Chive and onion cream cheese, half and half and Dijon mustard.
Seasonings – Garlic salt
Cheese – Shredded Swiss cheese and grated Parmesan cheese.

How to Make the BEST Chicken Cordon Bleu Cups Recipe Using Puff Pastry

Kitchen tools you’ll need: 12 cup muffin pan, sharp knife and cutting board, cheese grater, measuring cups and spoons, medium bowl, whisk and spoon.
Swiss cheese is classic to use when making cordon bleu. In a pinch, you could use gouda, gruyere or mozzarella cheese.
You can use rotisserie chicken, roasted or baked chicken, grilled chicken or poached chicken in this recipe.
The ham can be from the grocery store deli or use leftover holiday ham for a round two meal.
Follow the package instructions for thawing the puff pastry.
When baking with puff pastry, I have the most success starting these chicken cordon bleu cups on the lower oven rack to bake the bottom of the puff pastry thoroughly.
Puff pastry is so buttery, it can be a challenge to brown the bottoms if they’re baked in the center of the oven the entire time.
Once the bottom have baked for a few minutes, move the pan the center oven rack halfway through to finish baking and brown the tops.
You could also adapt these to mini muffins if you’d like to turn them into an appetizer or bite-size party treat.
To make mini chicken cordon bleu cups: After rolling the puff pastry, use a sharp knife or pastry wheel to cut it into 24 even pieces. Fit into the mini muffin pan and bake adjusting the baking time accordingly.
Store baked Chicken Cordon Bleu Cups chilled in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Reheat in single serving portions in the microwave or in a 350°F air fryer for a few minutes just until heated through.
