Puff pastry sfogliatine is one of the easiest and prettiest sweet treats you can whip up in less than 30 minutes.
These sfogliatine in a form of whirly windmill are super cute and definitely ADDICTIVE. Both kids and adults just LOVE them.
You also have full control how large or how small you want your “whirly windmills” to be.
Here’s a tip: make large squares to save time, or you can make assorted as well.
If you decide to make different sizes, make sure to bake each size separately as the smaller ones will brown in the oven faster.
You can also make them with different kind of jam, even pastry cream (just make it a bit thicker than classic version).
