Flower Shaped Pastries

I have a flower-like recipe today.  It is a bit difficult to make compared to normal pastries, but believe me, it's worth the effort you put into it. It is both magnificent in appearance and taste. Why does it taste better than other pastries? Because the amount of cheese is too much and the cheese spreads evenly all over the pastry.

In normal pastries, since the cheese is only in the middle of the pastry, its real taste can be enjoyed only when eating the middle of the pastry. But since there is cheese on every leaf in the flower pastry, it is full of cheese, so to speak.

If you have a yeast dough phobia, don't forget to take a look at my article where I explain the tricks of yeast dough. Be sure to use butter at room temperature. The butter at room temperature has started to melt, and when you touch it with your finger, it becomes soft enough to slide right into it. If you do not use your butter at room temperature, the amount of flour given will be excessive and it will be difficult to knead your dough. 3/4 doesn't mean three or four. If you do not know what it is, do not forget to take a look at the measurements section to refresh your knowledge of fractional numbers.

Enjoy...
