Ingredients
- Nonstick cooking spray
- 1 cup leftover mashed sweet potato
- 3 tablespoons mascarpone cheese, chilled
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/4 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- All-purpose flour, for dusting
- 2 puff pastry sheets (One 17.2 ounce package), thawed according to package directions
- 1 egg, beaten
- 2 tablespoons cinnamon-sugar
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Spray a rimmed baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray and set aside.
- In a medium bowl, mix together the mashed sweet potato, mascarpone, cinnamon, ginger and vanilla using a rubber spatula. Set aside.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out a sheet of puff pastry to 10-by-13 inches. Using a 3- inch round cutter, cut out 12 rounds from the first sheet of puff pastry. Working one at a time, use your fingers to slightly flatten and widen each round. Spoon a heaping teaspoon of the mashed potato filling into the middle of the round, brush a small amount of egg on one edge and stretch the pastry over the filling to make a half moon. Crimp the edges with your fingers to seal and place on the prepared baking sheet. Continue with the remaining rounds and half the filling, leaving 1 inch between puffs, and then cut and fill 12 rounds from the second sheet of puff pastry.
- Brush the tops of each pastry with some beaten egg and sprinkle with some cinnamon-sugar. Use the tip of a knife to poke a hole in the center of each of the puff. Bake until golden brown and puffed, about 15 minutes. Serve hot.

These are very good. I made them as the recipe called for and everyone loved them.
VERY GOOD! I have to admit I did not do individual puffs I just made one big puff but it turned out amazing! My boyfriend who hates sweet potatoes had seconds! And for an added twist I added some cardamom. Great!
