Puff pastry is one of those ingredients that really is better store-bought. Making it from scratch takes hours, a lot of skill, and can still come out wrong! Especially if you’re having a party, store-bought puff pastry can really be a lifesaver.
Pigs in a Blanket
This classic party food might not be the healthiest, but it is definitely a crowd-pleaser! All you have to do is take hot dogs, cut them into bite size pieces, and wrap some puff pastry around them. Bake them in the oven and serve with your favorite condiments!
Tarts
Tarts happen in a cinch when you use store-bought puff pastry. All you have to do is cut out squares, spread some soft cheese on the bottom, and place whatever seasonal vegetables you love in the middle. Fold the edges inward to keep everything in place and looking pretty, bake, and enjoy!
Pockets
All it takes is cutting the pastry into squares, stuffing them, and folding them into a triangle to make these pockets possible! You can go savory with meats and vegetables, or sweet with fruits or chocolate. Crimp the edges with a fork so everything stays together, bake, and serve!
