Instructions

1 Preheat the oven to 400 degrees and spray the sheet pan with olive oil spray.
2 First, using your Hannukah cookie cutters, cut out the Hanukkah shapes in the
mozzerella slices. Set aside for later use.
3 Next, place the puff pastry on the sheet pan and roll out to 2 inches more on
all sides (see the video above). TIP: Use a glass to roll out puff pastry if you
do not have a rolling pin.
4 Now, place sheet pan in the fridge for 30 minutes or overnight so the puff
pastry is cold when goes in the oven. Note: Puff pastry is layers of butter.
When the butter hots the hot oven its steams and pushes up the layers of pastry
to make a light fluffy texture.
5 Next, take the sheet pan out of the fridge and crimp the edges to create a 1
inch boarder. Also, using a fork prick the inside area of puff pastry so the
middle does not rise (only the edges rise to create picture frame look).
6 Now, pour the marinara in the center and spread out. Put in the oven for 20
minutes on the middle rack. Check at 15 so puff pastry does not burn.
7 Finally, let puff pastry cool, add the mozzerella Hanukkah shapes in a row to
the puff pastry, and sprinkle with basil!
8 Happy Hannukah and Grateful for you!
