SPICY SWEET POTATO EMPANADAS
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Line one sheet pan with aluminum foil and another with parchment paper.
- Rub the sweet potatoes with olive oil and prick them all over with the tines of a fork. Place the potatoes on the foil-lined sheet pan. Bake for about 1 hour, until very tender when pierced with a knife. Lower the oven to 375 degrees.
- Allow the potatoes to cool enough to handle, then peel and discard the skins, placing the potatoes in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Add the sour cream, butter, maple syrup, chile powder, orange zest, orange juice, 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt, and 3/4 teaspoon black pepper and mix well. Set aside.
- Unfold one sheet of the cold puff pastry on a floured cutting board. Roll the sheet into a 12-inch square with a rolling pin. With a sharp paring knife, cut four 5-inch circles from the pastry, using a dish as a guide and discarding the scraps. Place a heaping soup spoon of filling on each circle, leaving a 1-inch border. Brush the edges of the circles with the egg wash and fold over, making half circles. Crimp the edges together with the tines of a fork. Repeat with the second sheet of puff pastry. Place on the parchment-lined sheet pan. Chill for 15 minutes.
- Brush with the egg wash and sprinkle with the sea salt and pepper. Make 2 small slits in each empanada to allow steam to escape. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, until puffed and browned. Serve hot.

Steps:
- For the dough: Mix all ingredients together in large bowl, shape into a ball. Cover ball of dough with saran wrap and stick in freezer for about 15 minutes. Cooking Instructions for Filling: Sautee all the ingredients together (except for the wine) on high for about 1 minute. Lower flame to a low setting, cook covered for about 8-10 minutes. After dough is cooled, roll out between two sheets of wax or parchment paper; should be about 1/4 inch. Cut dough with a mason jar lid, or large, round cookie cutter. To assemble empanadas: Lightly flatten out each cut out piece of dough, so that it's a slightly larger circle. Fill with about 1 tsp worth of filling. Fold in half, pinch edges together with thumb and index finger. Brush melted butter on top. (Sprinkles cinnamon and sugar on top of the sweet ones.) Use savory filling leftovers to make omelets for breakfast the next morning :)! For the Sweet Dough: Follow steps from savory dough using 'sweet dough'ingredients. For the Sweet filling: Mash sweet potatoes with the spices in a bowl using a large spoon or potato masher. Slightly puree with hand mixer until smooth but still thick. To assemble sweet empanadas: Follow instructions from above Bake both sets of empanadas at 350 for about 18 minutes
CHEESY GUAVA EMPANADAS
When we were growing up, my mother would serve us slices of guava paste with cream cheese on the side for dessert and my father would eat sweet jams with savory cheeses for breakfast. These components come together in this empanada recipe: the cream cheese adds creaminess and tang, while the saltiness of the queso duro balances out the sweetness of the guava. It's an easy assembly and the result can be eaten for any meal, or as a sweet and savory snack.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Spray 2 baking sheets with nonstick cooking spray.
- Put 3 or 4 of the empanada wrappers on a flat work surface. Spoon 2 teaspoons of cream cheese on the bottom half of each, then spread to create a half-moon shape, leaving a 1/2-inch gap between the cream cheese and the edge. Divide the guava paste into 1-ounce sections; depending on how the paste is packaged, you can either cut it into planks or scoop out about 3 teaspoons per empanada (using 3 teaspoons rather than 1 tablespoon will make the empanadas easier to seal). Finally, top each empanada with about 2 tablespoons of grated cheese.
- Make an egg wash by whisking the egg in a small bowl with a splash of water. Brush the outer edge of each wrapper with the egg wash, then seal by folding each wrapper in half and pressing the edges together with your fingers. Arrange the empanadas on the prepared baking sheets, then crimp the edges of each with a fork, pushing down enough to seal but not enough to go through the dough. Assemble, seal and crimp the remaining empanadas.
- Brush the top side of each empanada with the egg wash, then bake until the outsides are dark golden brown and feel crispy to the touch, 20 to 25 minutes. Let cool for at least 5 minutes, then serve.

Steps:

Fold dough rounds in half to enclose filling; press lightly on tops to remove air pockets. Seal edges with fork.

SWEET POTATO EMPANADAS
These are delicious golden pastries stuffed with cuman scented sweet potatoes. The pastry is from JillAZ, see "Recipe #84430". I tried out this filling because I needed an additional vegetarian option for a wedding. While these do take a bit of planning ahead because the pastry and the filling have to chill, I have spread out the steps over several days. Once cooked and cooled, these beauties can be frozen and reheated at 400 degrees for about 10 minutes. These are great with Cuban mojo dipping sauce.

Steps:
- Dough: Cream the cream cheese and butter in a large bowl using an electric mixer at medium speed.
- When well mixed, add the flour and salt in two or three additions and continue to mix just until the dough comes together.
- Turn out the dough and knead a few times to form a cohesive ball.
- Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and chill it for at least three hours and up to a few days.
- Filling: Peel the yams and slice them into equal-sized chunks.
- Rinse the yams off and place them in a medium pot with about two inches of cold water.
- Bring to a boil, and then simmer until tender. 15 - 25 minutes depending on the size of the yams.
- When you can slide a knife easily into the yams, remove from heat and drain.
- Add butter, cumin, salt and a few grinds of black pepper and mash together until smooth.
- Chill filling until cool. If you make the filling right after the dough, they will both be ready at the same time, or you can cover and keep in the fridge for a few days.
- Assembly:Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
- Divide dough in half. Roll out one half to 1/8" thickness. This will be easier if the dough has only chilled for three hours, but if it has been overnight, it is still possible, just a little harder. Do not let the dough set out a room temperature.
- Cut out circles using a 3" biscuit cutter or a glass.
- Place your dough rounds on a cookie sheet, separating layers with waxed paper. Continue with the other dough half. The remainders can be re-rolled once to no ill effect. The dough rounds can be used right away, or kept wrapped in plastic in the fridge for up to two days.
- Place about a teaspoon of filling in a dough round and fold in half. Pinch the edges together to form the empanads. There is no need to seal the edges with anything other than your fingers, although the tines of a fork make an interesting design.
- Place each filled empanada on a cookie sheet lined with a Silpat about one inch apart.
- Make the egg wash by beating the egg with the water.
- Brush the egg wash on each pastry being sure to cover the entire empanada.
- Make a small slit in the top of each empanada with a sharp paring knife.
- At this point, I like to chill the empanadas for an additional 10 minutes to be sure that they keep their shape in the oven.
- Bake each tray at 450 degrees for 10-12 minutes until they are golden. Cool on racks.

SWEET AND SPICY EMPANADAS
These are more sweet than spicy and there are a few surprise ingredients that really make these little beef bites quite delicious! My husband is a "dipper" and created the tomato-based sauce that perfectly complements these non-traditional empanadas. The recipe makes 24 bite-sized appetizers, or you can make them twice as big and eat them for dinner. :)

- For the empanadas:.
- Take the pastry sheets out of the freezer 40 minutes before your empanadas will be ready to be filled.

- Cut the pastry into 24 equal rectangles and divide the mixture between them.
- Divide the cream cheese into 24 portions as well and squish it on top of the meat so it evenly covers.
- Fold the pastry over and seal the edges by folding or pinching.
- Place on baking sheet and bake for 13-15 minutes, or until puffy and golden brown.
- Remove from oven, place on serving plate, and dip in the sauce if you desire!
