Flower Puff

These elegant puffs look great on butternut and yellow split pea soup. The design is easy but so stunning you’ll have people marveling at your talent!

You will need:

• Prepackaged puff pastry
• Paprika
• Designer stencils
• 3" fluted cookie cutter

Remove puff pastry from the freezer. When the dough is soft enough to get the cookie cutter through, cut out your discs. (You do not want the dough to get too soft as this would make it hard to handle.) Place each disc on a parchment paper-lined cookie sheet. Center your stencil on your disc. Using a spoon, place a little bit of paprika at a time on the stencil until the design is covered with paprika. Carefully remove the stencil. Bake discs according to pastry package instructions. Immediately before serving soup, arrange the discs in the center.
