Mushroom Sauce:

• 1          can (14 ounces) mushrooms
• 1 1/2    cups chicken broth
• 3          tablespoons butter
• 3          tablespoons flour
• 1          tablespoon garlic powder
• salt, to taste
• pepper, to taste
• 1/2       cup heavy cream
• 8          ounces beef tenderloin steaks, cubed
• 1          package (17 ounces, 2 sheets) puff pastry
• water
• garlic and herb spreadable cheese
• 1          package (2 1/2 ounces) real bacon pieces
• mashed potatoes, for serving

1. To make mushroom sauce: In blender, blend mushrooms and chicken broth; set aside.
2. In skillet over medium heat, melt butter and mix in flour. Slowly add mushroom broth while stirring. It should start to thicken; if it doesn’t, add 1 tablespoon flour and stir well.
3. Add garlic powder and salt and pepper, to taste. Mix in heavy cream while continuing to stir. Remove from heat and set aside.
4. Heat oven to 400 F.
5. Cube steaks and place in bowl then cover and mix well with 1 cup mushroom sauce.
6. Cut each puff pastry into six squares for 12 total. Use water to moisten each corner of squares and bring them together, forming small box shape. Place 1 heaping tablespoon meat mixture into each pastry square.
7. Place squares on parchment paper-covered cookie sheets and bake 15 minutes.
8. Spoon spreadable cheese over hot squares and top with bacon pieces.
9. Serve with mashed potatoes and use leftover mushroom sauce as gravy.
