  • Preheat the oven to 390 F (200 C). Place a muffin tray on top of a baking sheet lined with parchment paper (this is because the rolls may overflow and make a mess).
  • In a stand mixer, mix 12 tablespoons of butter and add 1/3 cup of brown sugar, beat until a dough forms. Place 1 tablespoon of the mixture in each muffin tin. Sprinkle a little chopped walnut on top.
  • Place the puff pastry (well chilled) on a floured flat surface, and brush with melted butter (leaving a 2 cm border on the sides). On top of half of the pastry, place 1/3 cup of brown sugar, 1 1/2 teaspoons of cinnamon, and 1/2 cup of raisins. Roll the pastry very tightly.
  • Cut the edges of the roll and slice into 6 equal pieces. Place with the spiral side up on the muffin tray.
  • Repeat the two previous steps with the remaining pastry.
  • Bake for 30 minutes until the rolls are golden brown on top and firm. (Be careful, they are very hot). Let cool for 5 minutes on a tray lined with wax paper.
  • If you like, you can top them with a white glaze made with about 3-4 tablespoons of milk and 2 cups of powdered sugar.
