Festive Puff Pastry Twists
When it comes to whipping up a festive treat (while keeping your merriment intact), look no further than your freezer. Frozen puff pastry is a versatile staple that can swing sweet or savory. Not only does it offer a guaranteed flaky texture and rich, buttery flavor, it can also be sculpted into beautiful designs — from snowflakes and stars to trees and wreaths.
