Tips & Tricks

  1. You can substitute puff pastry with phyllo dough, but it won't rise as much, and the result will be crispier.

  2. Use cranberry preserves instead of the cranberry sauce for the best flavor. If the preserves are too thick, thin them with a splash of water, lemon juice, orange juice, or amaretto.

  3. Try Miyoko's plant milk cheese spread in classic chive as a vegan cream cheese option.
