Ingredients

  • 1 package puff pastry sheets - 2 come a box and there are many vegan varieties
  • ¼ cup finely chopped walnuts
  • 1 tablespoon dairy-free butter - melted
  • 1 tablespoon Grand Marnier
  • ½ cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • ¼ cup organic powdered sugar - for sprinkling on the cookies

Instructions

  • One sheet of puff pastry makes 48 cookies.
  • If you want to make 96 cookies double all of the ingredients but still only buy one box of the pastry sheets.
  • Mix the melted butter, Grand Marnier and walnuts together and set aside. This will be your walnut mixture.
  • Take one pastry sheet out of the freezer package to defrost for about 20 minutes.
  • Put the other sheet back in the freezer to use another time.
  • Divide the sheet into thirds which is very easy to do because you just separate them at their natural creases.
  • On a lightly floured surface roll out one of the thirds pastry sheet to a rectangle shape that measures 4" x 16".
  • Cut down the center of that sheet, lengthwise.
  • Now cut down then center, across those two sheets and then cut those sheets every 2". Here is the photo so you can visually see what I mean. There will be 16 2" squares.
  • So, you can see that you will get 48 little squares with all three sheets. I work one sheet at a time though. This way the dough keeps pliable.
  • Now on the little squares. Put 5 chocolate chips and a little pinch of the walnut mixture in the center of each square
  • Lay an ungreased cookie sheet next to your squares as you work on this next step.
  • You are going to make little sacks (purses).
  • At each square - pick up the opposite corner of the square and pull up to meet at the center.
  • Do this with the other opposite corners so that you have all four corners at the top.
  • Pinch together and twist a bit for a seal.
  • At this same time push pinch and push down the top edges so the make a little contained pouch.
  • Set on the ungreased baking sheet as you finish each sack/purse.
  • Bake at 425 degrees Fahrenheit for 10 to 12 minutes.
  • Let cool on a rack.
  • Sprinkle with powdered sugar and you have very special and festive little cookies.
