List of Ingredients


1 package (17 1/4 ounces) frozen puff pastry
1 egg
1 tablespoon milk
1/3 cup sugar
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon




Recipe

Separate pastry sheets and wrap each in plastic wrap. Thaw at room temperature 30 minutes. Preheat oven to 400ºF. Mix egg and milk and set aside. Mix sugar and cinnamon and set aside.

Unfold 1 pastry sheet on lightly floured surface. Brush with egg mixture. Sprinkle with 2 tablespoons sugar mixture. Starting at short sides, fold pastry toward center, leaving 1/4-inch space in center. Brush with egg mixture and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon sugar mixture. Fold one side over the other, making 4-layer rectangle. Repeat with remaining pastry sheet. Cut each rectangle into 12 (3/4-inch) slices. Place cut side down 2 inches apart on baking sheet. Brush tops with egg mixture. Bake 12 minutes or until golden. Remove from baking sheet. Cool on wire rack.

Makes 24 pastries.
