Notes: I Have been making it for years and my daughter loves it as a snack for school. I recreated this recipe as it reminds me of my own childhood. We would devour these puff pastries during my summer vacations. We would visit the bakery where these would be fresh out of the kitchen, near my Nanna's house - in the lush green valley of Islamabad, the capital city of my home country, Pakistan.
