Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

- Spread a generous Cinnamon Bun Spread evenly over half of the puff pastry sheet. Then, fold the puff pastry over, covering the cinnamon spread.
- Carefully cut the puff pastry into thin strips, about 1-inch wide. (makes 8-10 strips).
- Take each strip and gently fold the two ends towards the middle; fold the pastry in half again to create a heart shape.
- Grab a pre-soaked BBQ stick and stick two heart-shaped pieces
- Repeat steps 6 & 7.
- Once all the heart shapes are through the BBQ sticks and placed on the baking sheet, lightly brush them with almond milk for a golden finish.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes or until the sticks are puffed up and golden brown.
- Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving.
- If desired, dust the Cinnamon Sweetheart with powdered sugar for an extra touch of sweetness.
