Makes 12 servings3 sheets Black & Gold Puff Pastry, partially thawed
1/3 cup Community Co Raspberry Jam
1 tsp Black & Gold Wheaten Cornflour
1 egg, lightly whisked
Black & Gold Raw Sugar, for sprinkling
Directions
- Preheat oven to 190°C fan forced. Line a large baking tray with baking paper.
- Place jam in a small bowl. Combine corn flour and 1 tsp cold water in a small bowl. Add to jam. Stir until smooth and combined.
- Use a 9.5cm ghost cardboard template (or a cookie cutter) and a small sharp knife to cut 24 ghosts from pastry sheets (8 per sheet). Place 12 ghosts on prepared tray.
- Brush the edge only of each ghost on prepared tray with beaten egg. Place a level teaspoon of jam in the centre of each ghost (do not spread).
- Use a chop stick to create eyes and mouth in the remaining 12 ghosts. Place on top of prepared jam ghosts and gently press on edges to seal. Use a fork to seal edges well (this prevents the jam leaking). Brush with beaten egg. Sprinkle with sugar. Bake for 16 minutes or until golden, puffed and cooked through. Set aside to cool.
