3 to 4 sheets of frozen puff pastry (thawed)

cashew/peanuts (chopped roughly)

1 egg yolk (lightly beaten)*

* Alternatively, use melted butter for more flavour

Method:

2. Lay and space out the strips of Nian Gao on the pastry sheet before cutting it up into rectangles.
3. Place nuts on top of the strip of Nian Gao.
4. Fold the sides and roll the pastry with the filling enclosed into a little parcel.
5. Made few cuts on top of the pastry
6. Brush egg wash or melted butter on surface and sprinkle sesame seeds on top.
7. Bake in oven for 18 minutes or until golden brown.
