Steps for Puff Pastry Swirls with Raspberry and Sour Cherry Jam
Unroll the puff pastry sheet and use a pizza cutter to cut 5 strips from the longer side.
Fill each strip with raspberry jam by placing it with a teaspoon in the middle of the strip along its entire length.
Seal the edges of the strip to form a long cylinder and then roll it up like a swirl, a little snail!
Place the swirls on a baking tray lined with parchment paper, brush the surface with a beaten egg, and, if desired, decorate with colored sprinkles.
Bake the swirls on the second rack in a preheated oven at 392°F (200°C) fan for about 15 minutes, then lower the temperature to 356°F (180°C) and continue baking for another 10 minutes.
When they are golden, remove from the oven and let cool, sprinkle with powdered sugar, and then garnish with syruped sour cherries.
