Ingredients
  

  • Puff Pastry – Store-bought or homemade, this is the key to those extra flaky layers.
  • Fruit Preserves or Jam – Choose your favorite flavor! Strawberry, raspberry, or apple work great.
  • Egg Wash – Helps seal the edges and gives the pastry a golden sheen.
  • Powdered Sugar – The base for that sweet, drizzly icing.
  • Milk or Cream – To make the icing smooth and pourable.
  • Vanilla Extract – For that hint of warmth and sweetness.

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Roll out the puff pastry on a lightly floured surface and cut it into equal rectangles.
  • Add a spoonful of fruit preserves to the center of half the rectangles, leaving a small border.
  • Brush the edges with an egg wash and place another piece of pastry on top, sealing the edges with a fork.
  • Bake for 15-18 minutes or until golden brown and puffed up.
  • Prepare the icing by mixing powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  • Drizzle the icing over the warm pastries and enjoy!
