Easy Sopapillas

I remember when I was young there was a Mexican restaurant we use to go to had the best sopapillas.  They were these big flaky pastries that were hollow inside.  Most people put honey on the inside but I never did.  They were always so good.  These sopapillas are the closest thing to those sopapillas that I have found.  And another plus is that they are super easy to make.

This is all you need to make these delicious little puffs of goodness.

Thaw one sheet of puff pastry per the directions.

The directions said to cut 2 inch squares but the sheet of pastry was an odd size.  And the 2 inch squares are pretty small too.

This is the 2 inch square.

Place the squares on a baking sheet with parchment paper.  Place in a preheated 400 oven.  Bake for about 10-12 minutes.  Don't let them get too brown.

While they are in the oven mix together 3/4 cup sugar.

1 Tablespoon cinnamon.  I didn't really measure it and probably had too much cinnamon but we like cinnamon.

Mix that together.

Fresh from the oven.

Now you want to roll them in the cinnamon and sugar mixture.

They have all been rolled.

Now drizzle with some honey.  I didn't put too much because I didn't want them to get soggy.

Put as much honey as you like.

Now dig in.
