12 puff pastry rounds, each
approximately 3 ½ inches in diameter

found at the supermarket are usually
separated in the package by sheets of
plastic, and you could use those)

until the green button lights up.
2. Place a piece of plastic wrap on the mini empanada mold; place a puff pastry
round on top of the plastic.
3. Spoon 1 tsp each of guava paste and cheese onto the middle of the pastry
round; close the mini empanada mold and press firmly.
4. Repeat the last two steps until you have formed 12 mini empanadas; place 6 of
them into your Oster
5. After a few seconds you will see the green light button go off; now wait about
