French Onion and Swiss Cheese Cups image

Found this recipe years ago never made them because my son is not a fan of onions...decided to finally make it and to my surprise he took one of these cups and ate it with no complaints! If I didnt see it with my own eyes I wouldn't have believed it. Rest of family loved them too.

These were delicious! I made them for my family and they all loved them. The only thing I would change is to use a different type of cheese.

These were a bit too time-consuming to make. I think I would try a different recipe next time.

These were a bit bland for my taste. I think I would add some more herbs or spices next time.

These were a bit too greasy for my liking. I think I would try baking them next time instead of frying them.

Not bad, but not great. I found the onions to be a bit too sweet for my taste.

I've made these several times now and they're always a crowd-pleaser. I like to add a little bit of Dijon mustard to the onions for a bit of extra flavor.

Easy to make and so tasty! I used a store-bought puff pastry dough to save time, and it turned out great.

Absolutely delicious! The combination of the caramelized onions, Swiss cheese, and flaky pastry is perfect. I will definitely be making this again.
