1 pkg. frozen puff pastry sheets (2 sheets)
1/3 cup prepared vanilla pudding or lemon curd
1/3 cup honey, warmed
Green decorating sugar
8 raspberries or maraschino cherry halves

Christmas Trees

1. Thaw pastry sheets at room temperature for 30 minutes. Preheat oven to 400� F.
2. Unfold 1 pastry sheet on lightly floured surface. Cut 4 stars of each size, using 3 star cookie cutters in graduated sizes. Repeat with remaining pastry sheet. Place stars on baking sheets.
3. Bake for 10 minutes or until golden. Remove from baking sheets and cool on wire rack.
4. To assemble trees, top large star pastry with about 1 tsp. pudding. Top with medium star pastry, turning star so points do not line up. Top with 1 tsp. pudding and place small star pastry on top, turning so points do not line up.
5. Repeat with remaining star pastries, making 8 "trees". Drizzle "trees" with honey. Sprinkle with green sugar and top each with a raspberry.
