Questions & Replies
-
I was reading the reviews and someone asked if these could be prepared a head of time and the baked when you need them. That person did not get a reply. So I am asking the same, prepare then freeze then bake.???
Reviews

I think that next time I would leave these with a single layer of the puff pastry rather than stacking them. The stacks turned out big and lopsided. I think it would be better to have one layer, smaller portions of cheese, not so greasy.
Tweaks

I loved the cranberry topping, but I used prepared apple butter when I made this for Thanksgiving.
