Pinch together the four corners of each square to create a ball, then fill it with your filling. To keep the filling from escaping during baking, pinch and close any edges that aren’t completely sealed. After you have the baking sheet ready, set the pastry balls on top with the seam side down.
Lightly brush the beaten egg over each dough ball to create a glossy, golden coating. Granulated sugar, if liked, may be sprinkled on top for a little more sweetness and texture.
Puff the pastry balls until they are golden brown and puffy, about 15 to 18 minutes in a preheated oven. The crust should be crispy and the contents hot.
Once taken out of the oven, let the dough balls aside to cool somewhat on the baking sheet before dusting with sugar. Before serving, dust with powdered sugar for an attractive finishing touch.
