Little bonbons
“Keep it simple, make it colourful, prepare ahead - and pare back.”
- 24 cocktail frankfurts
- 6 sheets ready-rolled puff pastry
- 1 egg, lightly beaten
- Ovenproof cotton or string
- Tomato sauce, to serve
With a little inspiration, imagination and forward planning, a day involving screaming hordes of children descending on your home in search of fairy bread can be fun.
Method
Pre-heat oven to 180C. Prick frankfurts all over with a fork. Cut each pastry sheet into 4 squares, brushing each square with beaten egg. Place a frankfurt on each pastry square and roll up. Gently press edges to seal. Tie ends loosely with string.
Place bonbons on a lightly greased oven tray, brush lightly with egg and bake for 15-20 minutes or until golden.
To serve
Serve with tomato sauce. Small children may need to be reminded to remove the string before eating. Can be made the day before and reheated on party day.
Makes 24.
