Guava and 'Cream' Cheese Pastry Puffs

Ingredients

• 2 sheets Puff pastry sheets (dairy-free)
• 8 oz Guava paste
• 4 oz Dairy-free cream cheese
• 2 tbsp Dairy-free milk, for brushing

Instructions

1. 1Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. 2Remove the 2 sheets of dairy-free puff pastry from their packaging and lay them flat on a clean surface. Allow them to thaw at room temperature for 20-30 minutes, or until they are soft enough to unfold without cracking. Once thawed, unroll each of the 2 sheets of puff pastry and cut each sheet into 9 squares, for a total of 18 squares.
3. 3Cut the 8 oz of guava paste into 1/2-inch cubes. Measure out the 4 oz of dairy-free cream cheese.
4. 4Place one 1/2-inch cube of the 8 oz of guava paste and approximately 1 teaspoon of the 4 oz of dairy-free cream cheese in the center of each of the 18 pastry squares. Fold each pastry square diagonally to form a triangle, then gently press the edges together with your fingers and crimp them firmly with a fork to seal.
5. 5Arrange the assembled pastry puffs on the parchment-lined baking sheet, leaving about 1 inch of space between each one. Brush the tops of all the pastry puffs with the 2 tbsp of dairy-free milk.
6. 6Bake the pastry puffs in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until they are puffed up and golden brown in color. Carefully remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the pastry puffs cool slightly on the baking sheet for 5-10 minutes before serving.
