Puff pastry vatrushki
Description
You'll need just 30 minutes, provided you have thawed puff pastry. You can use cottage cheese and sour cream of any fat content. Add sugar to taste, or replace it with floral honey if you aren't allergic to it. Don't forget vanilla, cinnamon, and other flavorings. Serve cooled or slightly warm.
