Guava and Cream Cheese Empanadas.. yummmm

Easiest Recipe Ever.

Ok, so you buy the following ingredients (Puff Pastry Sheets, Guava Paste, and Cream Cheese)...





Then you're going to open up a puff pastry sheet and cut it into either 4 equal pieces, or 9 equal pieces, depending on the size you want your empanadas to be. I prefer 9 because the sheets are expensive and the desserts go fast.

You take a piece of guava and a piece of cream cheese, put them in the center of your square and then fold over so that you have a triangle. Then push down the edges with either your thumb or a fork to make sure it is sealed well.

Then you're ready to bake!

Bake them at 400 degrees until the puff pastry starts turning golden brown (10-15 min).

Make sure you cool before you let people eat them.  They tend to burn mouths.
