Heart-shaped pastries from puff pastry with sugar
Description
Homemade pastries for tea. I always keep a package of puff pastry in my freezer. It's very convenient—it thaws quickly and bakes fast too. I'd like to share with you a recipe for puff pastry hearts with sugar. Even a child can handle this recipe. Working with ready-made dough is a real pleasure; the main thing is not to let it thaw too much. These puff pastry hearts are loved by both adults and children. My kids baked these hearts for Valentine's Day and treated their friends. Serve them with tea or coffee.

Step 4
Press the resulting rolls tightly together. Press the edge where the rolls meet a bit more firmly to shape them into hearts. Cut into pieces about 1 cm thick. Place them onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake in a preheated oven at 200 degrees until golden brown. This will take approximately 15–20 minutes.
