How to Make Cherry Creme Puff Wontons

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Lightly flour a sheet of wax paper. Unfold one sheet of puff pastry (14.1 oz) onto it.
  3. Roll the puff pastry to 12x12 inches using a floured rolling pin.
  4. Cut the pastry into 24 squares using a sharp knife. Repeat with the second sheet of puff pastry for a total of 48 squares.
  5. Gently press each puff pastry square into a muffin tin cup, ensuring they don't touch each other. Leave the tops open.
  6. Place one cherry in the bottom of each puff pastry square.
  7. In a large bowl, using electric beaters, whip 2 cups heavy whipping cream until soft peaks form.
  8. Add 8 oz mascarpone cheese in chunks, and whip until completely blended.
  9. In a small bowl, mix 2 tablespoons strong brewed coffee with 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg, and 2 tablespoons granulated sugar until a paste forms.
  10. Add the coffee mixture to the mascarpone cream and blend well.
  11. Stir in ¼ cup pecan chips, reserving ¼ cup for garnish.
  12. Stir in ¼ cup graham cracker crumbs.
  13. Refrigerate the mascarpone mixture until ready to use.
  14. Bake the puff pastry squares with cherries for 13-15 minutes, or until golden brown.
  15. Carefully remove the puff pastry wontons from the muffin tin using a fork and transfer to a serving plate.
  16. Let the wontons cool for 10 minutes.
  17. Top each wonton with a heaping teaspoon of the mascarpone filling.
  18. Sprinkle with reserved pecan bits and serve immediately.
