Puff Pastry Cherry Blossoms

1. 1

   Cut your sheet of puff pastry into squares. I cut down the 3 vertical marks that are previously there. I was left with 3 strips. I cut each strip into 3 squares. They are not perfectly square, but that's o.k! You can make yours larger if you like. Take one of your squares and place 1 tablespoon of filling in the center. Don't use more than that, or you will have a mess.

   Grab two opposite corners and pull up to center and pinch together.

   Do the same with the other corners. Now, pinch closed two seams and leave two open.

   Lay your cherry blossoms on a parchment lined baking sheet.
