How to Make Mini Raspberry Croissants:

There’s nothing I love more than a fancy dessert and when it’s easy to make, that’s even better. These Mini Raspberry Croissants start with frozen puff pastry and are filled with raspberry jam.  I added a bit of Nielsen- Massey Lemon Extract for a little added zing. So simple. but so, so good!

The puff pastry is thawed and cut into triangles and then filled with the raspberry jam. Take notice of that beautiful WÜSTHOF GOURMET 6″ Cake Knife!

The triangles are rolled up and gently curled to crescent shapes.

The crescents are brushed with an egg wash (an egg, beaten with a bit of water and vanilla extract). This helps them bake up golden brown and gives them a little shine.
