Caprese Tarts

I made these tarts the other day as an appetizer. They were delicious! I tried to find something circular to use to cut them out, but all I could find was a cookie cutter in the shape of my fabulous home state. They turned out really well - yummy and cute! I guess you could just cut them into squares, or use another fun cookie cutter!

Caprese Tarts
Ingredients:
2 sheets frozen puff pastry, thawed
Olive oil
Kosher salt
Black pepper
Cherry tomatoes, sliced thinly
Fresh mozzarella cheese, diced
Fresh basil, minced

Directions:
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Using a round biscuit cutter, cut rounds of puff pastry. Transfer them to a parchment-lined baking sheet. Brush the puff pastry rounds lightly with olive oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Top each round with sliced tomatoes, mozzarella, and basil. Bake in preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until golden. Serve warm.
