Be the star of the party with these simple but elegant Mini Beef Wellingtons. I have been making these elegant little appetizers for years and they are always a hit. These look very fancy but are incredibly simple to make. Your guest will ask you where you purchased them.

My Mini Beef Wellingtons are the perfect make-ahead appetizers because they freeze great. I usually double or triple the recipe. When ready to fix, just grab them from the freezer, brush them with the egg wash and bake. Perfect for the impromptu get together or when you get invited to a party at the last-minute.

I serve my Mini Beef Wellingtons with a simple dipping sauce using Boursin® cheese, cream cheese, and Worcestershire sauce.

Mini Beef Wellingtons | https://dadwhats4dinner.com/Because of how quick these cook, you will need to use a high-quality cut of beef such as a fillet or rib-eye.

    What a fun idea! I know these would go over big with my husband, brothers and myself! I like the idea of classing up the Super Bowl fare a bit too. Yum!

    I love this idea! I’ve made a full-size beef wellington just once and I’m pretty sure I held my breath right to the end! This would be sensational at a party and so impressive. Thanks for sharing!

      Hi Liz. Yeah this is one of my goto’s. I usually keep some on the freezer. I know what you mean about the full sized beef wellington. Scared me to death. Not a worry with this recipe. Thanks for stopping by.
