Ingredients
1 pkg. (11.6 oz.)
GOYA® Empanada Dough-Puff Pastry for Baking, thawed
5 oz.
GOYA® Queso Blanco (white cheese), cut into ¼” cubes (about 48 cheese cubes)
5 oz.
GOYA® Guava Paste, cut into ¼” cubes (about 48 guava cubes)
½ cup
walnut pieces, toasted (about 48 walnut pieces)
Directions
Step 1
Heat oven to 400˚F. Using 1¾” diameter round cookie cutters, cut 4 circles in each puff pastry round (you will have 48 rounds). Divide cut pastry rounds evenly among baking trays fitted with parchment paper, leaving 1” spaces between each round.
Step 2
Bake until light golden brown and puffed, about 8 minutes. Using back of small spoon or melon baller, press down centers of hot pastries to make indentation.
Step 3
Place one piece each queso blanco and guava paste into each indentation. Bake until guava and cheese are soft and melted, about 8 minutes.
Step 4
Transfer pastries to cooling rack. Press walnut piece into each pastry. Let pastries sit until cool, about 10 minutes.
