Ingredients

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400˚F.
- Unroll thawed sheet of puff pastry and divide into 4 equal squares.
- Place each square into a mini cast iron pan (can use a baking sheet as well) and prick holes all over the bottom of each.
- Place pastry squares in the oven and bake for about 8 minutes or until barely browned and puffed.
