CHICKEN CANAPES 
Make 1 recipe of plain pastry and roll 1/8 inch thick. Cut in 2 inch squares and fill with a mixture of chopped, cooked chicken, ham and celery, moistened with a little heavy cream. Fold dough into triangular shapes, seal edges with fork and prick top twice. Bake in hot oven 15 minutes. Serve hot (about 2 dozen Canapes).

PLAIN PASTRY:

2 c. sifted flour
1/2 tsp. salt
2/3 c. shortening
1/4 c. ice water

Mix and sift flour and salt together. Cut in shortening until mixture is flaky. Make a little hollow near the edge of the bowl, add 1 tablespoon ice water and press into it as much of the flour-fat mixture as it will hold. Make another hollow and repeat this until all flour is moistened. Chill for 15 minutes.
