Step-by-Step Instructions
First things first, preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). I love the smell of the oven warming up, knowing that something delicious is coming soon. While it heats, lightly flour your counter and roll out the thawed puff pastry just a touch to smooth it out. Cut it into squares—about 4×4 inches works perfectly. I usually aim for about four squares total, but if you feel like making smaller ones, go for it! (See the next page below to continue steps…)
