Chocolate Strawberry Croissants

While all your little Pricesses are playing tea party, you can keep some adult company entertained with this more sophisticated version of the Strawberry Finger Sandwiches.  After all, you worked hard, and you derserve a little R&R as well.  You will need to pick up some croissants, but all the other ingredients are on hand from the Tea Party Luncheon.  I like to keep things simple.

Nutella paired with strawberry cream cheese, fresh strawberries, and croissants will give you three more reasons to throw even more tea parties. 


 
  Slice Strawberries lengthwise.  Soften cream cheese by
microwaving
 it for about 2 minutes.

Stir 1/4 C strawberry jam into 
the cream cheese.  If
there are lumps in the cheese,
use a hand blender to
make it smooth.
Slice croissants in half and
 spread nutella on one half and
strawberry
cream cheese on the
other side. 
Line one side with strawberries. 
Assemble sandwiches and cut
in half to make two pieces. 

   
These are amazing, so you might
not even want to invite friends!
