Equipment

  • Baking pan

Ingredients

  • ½ lb Puff pastry, frozen and defrosted
  • ¼ lb Spanish chorizo, sliced into ¼ inch disks
  • 1 Egg, beaten

Instructions

  • Roll puff pastry to a thickness of ⅛ inch. Cut into circles just slightly bigger than the chorizo disks. Lay 1 disk on a pastry circle, paint around the edges and cover with a second pastry circle. Seal the edges with a fork. Keep cool in refrigerator after each one is done.
  • To finish, heat oven to 450°F (230°C), place puffs on a baking sheet and cook on the upper rack for 7 minutes until lightly browned and puffed.

Notes

  • To freeze, put baking sheet in freezer before final baking step. Once frozen, pour into a ziplock freezer bag and store in the freezer until ready use. Bake as described above.
