Description
When we talk about this Pepperidge Farm Puff Pastry recipe idea, we are essentially discussing the art of the filled pastry pocket. At its core, this recipe uses a frozen, pre-laminated dough that contains hundreds of microscopic layers of shortening or butter. When placed in a high-temperature oven, the moisture in those layers turns to steam, pushing the dough up and creating that signature “puff” that is both light and crisp.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pack Pepperidge Farm Puff Pastry Sheets (thawed)

Optional fillings (choose one):
- Jam (strawberry, raspberry, etc.)
- Chocolate chips or Nutella
- Cream cheese + sugar
