Joulutortut (Christmas Stars)

Joulutortut = Christmas Tart
Also known as Christmas Stars as they are shaped like stars.

This is a traditional Finnish Christmas delight. It is made of puffy pastry, and filled with either preserved plum or prune jam. We attempted these tarts the easy way - ready made puff pastry and prune jam from the annual Christmas Fair at the Finnish Church.






If you'd like to make it from scratch, here is a good recipe from Virtual Finland's site.
