Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). While it warms, line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Roll out the thawed puff pastry on a lightly floured surface to about 1/8 inch thickness. Cut into a rectangle.
  3. Spread mixed berry preserves evenly across the pastry, leaving a 1-inch border. Brush the border with melted butter mixed with vanilla extract.
  4. Cut the pastry into 8 equal strips and twist each strip several times before placing on the prepared baking sheet.
  5. Brush each twisted pastry with a whisked egg and sprinkle granulated sugar on top.
  6. Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes until puffed and golden brown.
  7. Let the pastries cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before serving warm.
