Guava Petite Pasties

Leave a comment

A pasty is a baked pastry, which is associated with Cornwall, the westernmost county in England. It is made by placing uncooked filling typically of meat and vegetables on a pastry circle and folding it to wrap the filling, crimping the edge to form a seal.  This Guava version is a sweet dessert in a petite size, making it the perfect little dessert for cocktail parties.
