Sweet Puff Pastry Pockets For Your Sweetheart

Have you seen these puff pastry pockets that have been taking over the internet? I stumbled on Tasty's and I am hooked!

Everyone is having so much fun with their own spins and takes on these fun little treats. I decided to try out the "sweet" version for upcoming Valentine's Day before I cut myself off completely from all that is good (which means bad, for me), for Lent. After Easter though, I cannot wait to try out the "savory" version of these pockets.

One of the pockets in this recipe calls for bananas and hazelnut spread. Well, I went to make them and someone at all the bananas. It was freezing outside and I was not about to hit the market for one banana. I did however, have some caramels and pecans, so played with it and made a Turtle Praline version...WOW!!

I hope you all stay safe, healthy, sparkly, and have a Blessed weekend!
