   4. On a floured surface, use a rolling pin to roll out the puff pastry until it is about 11/2 times the original size. Cut the pastry into 16 equal squares (or rectangles as they may be). If needed, roll out each individual piece to get it the right size. Do your best not to over handle the pastry, try to keep it cold. You can not re-roll this type of pastry.
