Preheat the oven to 400 degrees and spray the sheet pan with olive oil spray.
First, using your Hannukah cookie cutters, cut out the Hanukkah shapes in the mozzerella slices. Set aside for later use.
Next, place the puff pastry on the sheet pan and roll out to 2 inches more on all sides (see the video above). TIP: Use a glass to roll out puff pastry if you do not have a rolling pin.
Now, place sheet pan in the fridge for 30 minutes or overnight so the puff pastry is cold when goes in the oven. Note: Puff pastry is layers of butter. When the butter hots the hot oven its steams and pushes up the layers of pastry to make a light fluffy texture.
Next, take the sheet pan out of the fridge and crimp the edges to create a 1 inch boarder. Also, using a fork prick the inside area of puff pastry so the middle does not rise (only the edges rise to create picture frame look).
Now, pour the marinara in the center and spread out. Put in the oven for 20 minutes on the middle rack. Check at 15 so puff pastry does not burn.
Finally, let puff pastry cool, add the mozzerella Hanukkah shapes in a row to the puff pastry, and sprinkle with basil!
Happy Hannukah and Grateful for you!
