Flaky turnovers with a tart cherry and rich ricotta filling are a welcome addition to any table. Look for butter puff pastry in the freezer section of your grocery store and thaw in the refrigerator overnight.

Be sure to add the liquid to the icing slowly and gradually so that it doesn't separate. Use a pretty fluted cookie cutter to make these stand out on your cookie tray.
Baking cookies is the perfect way to get the family together in the kitchen. With this easy dough, it takes no time to cut the cookies into festive shapes and decorate as desired.
