I have several recipes marked in my blog reader that use Nutella. Yesterday, when making my grocery list, I decided it was time to try one of them. I got the Nutella (YUM) and marshmallows and happened to have one puff pastry sheet left from a previous recipe. I cut the recipe in half and made four of the delicious pillow pocket pastries.
I definitely recommend these. I had one for dessert last night and one for breakfast this morning. Why not?
Nutella-Mallow Pillow Pockets
from Picky Palate
1 sheet puff pastry, thawed
Nutella
Mini marshmallows
1 egg white, whisked with 1 TBS water
Sugar
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Cut the square of pastry into 4 equal size pieces. Spread a couple tablespoons of Nutella spread onto the center of each pastry leaving 1/2 inch border around edges. Top each with about 12-15 mini marshmallows and fold over to form a little triangle. Crimp edges firmly with the tines of a fork. Brush with egg white wash then sprinkle with granulated sugar.
Bake for 22-25 minutes or until pastry just turns golden. Remove and let cool for 5 minutes. Then, dig in!
Makes 4 pockets.

Sounds very yummy….might have to be a new camping dessert (with the Tuckers of course since they have an oven. Usually they make chocolate or chocolate and peanut butter croissants!)

These are really good with guave paste too.
