Ingredients
- 1 box Puff pastry sheets Thawed, I used the 17.3 oz Pepperidge Farm box
- 1 cup Cherry pie filling
- 1 Egg Large, Optional
- 1 tablespoon Water Optional
- ⅓ cup Sanding sugar Optional
Instructions
- Unwrap both the puff pastry sheets and cut into 8 squares (4 from each sheet).
- Place 1-2 tablespoons cherry pie filling in the center of each square.
- Brush the edges of the square with water.
- Fold the puff pastry from one corner to the other in a triangle shape, enclosing the filling inside.
- Use a fork to press and seal the edges together OR you can just pinch all along the edges tightly, which is what I did.
- Place them on a cookie tray, lined with parchment paper.
- Optional: In a small mixing bowl, whisk together egg and water. Brush this on ton top of each pastry. Sprinkle sanding sugar on top.
- Bake at 375 degrees F for about 20-25 minutes or until pastry is golden brown.
