- Brush egg wash on the inside edges of each square, then fold them into a triangular shape. Gently pinch the edges with your fingers and then use a fork to crimp the edges.
- Place on the prepared cookie sheet. Brush the tops of each turnover with egg wash.
- Bake on the middle rack of the oven for 20 - 23 minutes or until golden brown and crisp on the edges. Allow to cool completely on a cooling rack.

Place the icing in a piping bag or sandwich bag, trim the tip, and drizzle icing over the tops of the turnovers.
