Unfold one sheet of puff pastry and on a lightly floured surface, open it up gently. Use a rolling pin to lightly roll the pastry sheet to get rid of any fold lines.
Cut the sheet of puff pastry in half using a pizza cutter. Then cut each half into half so you have four even squares. Then cut each square into nine pieces.
Once you have all the strips cut, place them on a baking sheet that’s been lined with parchment paper.
Bake in a 400°F preheated oven for about 12 to 15 minutes or until the strips are puffed up and golden brown.
Let the puff pastry strips cool completely before dipping in the melted chocolate.
Place the candy melts in a microwave safe bowl. Microwave on medium power for 30 seconds. Remove the bowl from the microwave and stir the chocolates. Repeat until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth.
Dip one end of the puff pastry strip into the melted chocolate and then immediately into the sprinkles or crushed peppermint candies.
Place the strips back on to the parchment paper to completely harden before serving.
Notes
Puff Pastry Christmas Cookies are best served the day you prepare them. They will keep fresh for a few days when stored in an air-tight container.
