Instructions puff pastry candies with olives

Roll out the puff pastry and with a wheel cutter or a sharp knife cut out long rectangles throughout the pastry (about about 8 cm wide). Divide into smaller rectangles obtaining pieces of similar sizes. In my case 8 cm x 4 cm.
On each rectangle place a green olive that has been dried before with a paper towel and brush the puff pastry with an egg wash.
Wrap each olive with the pastry without closing it completely and seal the tips. Twist the ends in opposite sides creating an illusion of a candy.
Brush with the egg wash and place on a baking tray previously lined with baking paper and bake in a preheated static oven at 200 °C for about 10 minutes.
