    6. Bake at 425° F for 15 minutes or till puff pastry turnovers are golden brown and flaky.
    Additional Notes: The oven must be preheated to a high temperature, usually 400° to 450° F. If the oven is not hot, the butter will melt and the moisture will evaporate before steam can create layers.
Savita's Recipe Notes:
To handle Puff Pastry dough, always work on a lightly floured surface. If using homemade dough, take a piece and roll it out to the thickness of 3-4 sheets of copier paper. If using commercial puff pastry, thaw it on kitchen counter for 30 minutes or in refrigerator for 2-3 hours.
