Puff Pastry Cherry Blossoms
- 1 box Pepperidge Farm Puff Pastry (17 Ounce Box)
- 1 can (21 Oz. Size) Cherry Pie Filling
- 1 whole Egg, Beaten
- 3 Tablespoons Turbinado (RAW) Sugar
- 1 cup Confectioners Sugar
- 1-1/2 Tablespoon Milk
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- Cut your sheets of puff pastry into squares. I cut down the 3 vertical marks that were already on the sheets. Then I cut each strip into 3 squares. Use the entire box for 18 blossoms. They are not perfectly square, but that's o.k! Take one of your squares and place 1 tablespoon of pie filling in the center. Don't use more than that, or you will have a mess.
- Pull all four corners up together and pinch 2 of the seams closed, but leave 2 vents open. Lay your cherry blossoms on a parchment lined baking sheet or silicone baking mat. If you don't have parchment paper, grease your pan lightly.
- Brush the tops of the pastry with the beaten egg and sprinkle with sugar.
- Bake at 375 degrees F for 15-20 minutes until very golden.
- Prepare the glaze while the blossoms are baking. Mix together the confectioner's sugar, milk and vanilla. Stir until the consistency is as thick/thin as you like.
- Once the blossoms have finished baking, glaze them while still warm.
