Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 400F and remove Puff Pastry from freezer.
  2. Meanwhile, put sugar and water into a microwave safe bowl and microwave 1 minute. Stir. Microwave 1 minute more. Stir to be sure all sugar is completely dissolved. Put this into the freezer to cool.
  3. Once puff pastry can easily be unfolded, open it up and use a rolling pin to flatten a bit. I used a biscuit cutter to cut my circles and they fit perfectly into a mini-muffin pan. If you want to use a standard muffin pan or individual tart tins, cut your circles a little bigger. Grease your tin/cups and put the puff pastry circles inside.
  4. Check to see if the sugar water is cooled to room temperature. Once it is, add the evaporated milk, vanilla, eggs + egg yolk and whisk well.
  5. Strain this through a sieve to get out all the lumps and egg gunk. Pour the remaining liquid into the puff pastry shells, just below the rim.
  6. Bake for 10-15 minutes (or less if making minis) or until the edges start to brown. Reduce heat to 350F and bake an additional 10-15 minutes or until a toothpick remains standing up when poked in the middle of one.
  7. Allow to cool a few minutes and then enjoy!
