A little tweak on the Iced Puff Pastry recipe in Keeping it Simple that renders this beyond amazing. (It’s genius to layer grated anything between the pastry laminations...think grated chocolate, herbs, more butter, cayenne, coarse sugar...oh the possibilities!) I love these as unique little pastry bites on their own, but put this on top of a pie, or make twists to serve with drinkies. Come on kids...amazing. Am I right?
