I will eat puff pastry plain! Once my husband saw a TV chef make it, and wanted to try himself. It’s a lot of time and work, and we didn’t do it again; but it turned out pretty good, and I had pastry for months of these:

I love those Southern classics.

BTW, Trisha Yearwood's Cheese Straw recipe gets rave
reviews. Does not use puff pasty....recipe on food.com

If you bring whipping cream to just under boiling... and you walk away for even a minute. It WILL overboil and make a mess on the stove.

Every

Single

Time.

Trust me.

On the up side.. I've got ice cream working in the freezer. ;)

I use puff pastry and make turnovers sometimes on the weekends. I just thaw one sheet, and when I say just that I mean as soon as you can unfold it I use it so it is still cold. Cut one sheet into 4 squares and dab on a tablespoon of your favorite apple or any fruit preserves. Pear is good and I also like blackberry preserves and goat cheese. Fold over into a triangle and bake at 350 for 5 minutes or so. Don’t pinch them closed too tight. Ice with a simple powdered sugar/milk icing.
