Whip up your own batch of "puffles" for Valentine's Day (or any day, really), and serve your hearts on a platter. Ingredients Unbleached all-purpose flour, for dusting 1 sheet (about 14 ounces) all-butter puff pastry, such as Dufour, thawed completely in refrigerator ¼ cup chocolate-hazelnut spread, such as Nutella Strawberries, halved if large, and warmed pure maple syrup, for serving Directions Preheat a nonstick waffle iron according to manufacturer's instructions. Dust a clean work surface with flour and roll out pastry to flatten creases; cut in half crosswise. Dollop chocolate-hazelnut spread by the teaspoon onto one piece of dough, spaced 2 inches from edges of dough and 2 inches apart. Brush between dollops with water, then top with second piece of dough, pressing gently between dollops to seal. Center a 2 1/2-inch heart-shaped cookie cutter over dollops and stamp out shapes. Freeze 5 minutes. Cook in waffle iron until puffed and golden, 5 to 6 minutes. Serve with strawberries and syrup. Cook's Notes These puffles are great with or without fillings, but in lieu of the chocolate-hazelnut spread, you can stuff them with peanut butter, dulce de leche, or more chopped berries.
