Ingredients

18	slices	bread, white	soft, crusts removed
3	tablespoons	butter	melted
6	ounces	artichoke hearts	marinated, drained, finely chopped
3	tablespoons	mayonnaise
1	tablespoon	scallions, spring or green onions	finely chopped, chop some of tops for garnish
1/4	cup	parmesan, parmigiano-reggiano cheese, grated	grated
1	tablespoon	parmesan, parmigiano-reggiano cheese, grated	grated

Directions

Roll each bread slice flat with a rolling pin and trim it to form a 2 1/2" square. Brush both sides of the squares lightly with the butter and fit the squares into gem muffin tins, pressing the bread against the sides of the tins.

Bake the croustades in the middle of a preheated 350 deg. oven 12-14 minutes, oruntil the edges are pale golden.

These may be made 2 days in advance & kept in an airtight container.

In a bowl stir together the artichoke hearts, mayonnaise, 1 tb of the scallion, 1/4 c of the Parmesan, and salt & pepper to taste.

Divide the mixture by heaping teaspoons among the croustad and sprinkle the remaining Parmesan on top. Broil the croustades under a preheated broiler about 6" from the heat, being careful not to let the croustade edges burn, for 1 minute, or until the filling is bubbling. Garnish the croustades with the scallion green and arrange 3 of them on each of 6 small plates.
