Step 1
Preheat oven to 400 and grease a baking sheet.
Step 2
Melt butter and set close by in a cup. You will also need a brush.
Step 3
Squeeze defrosted spinach well and dice to get rid of long strings.
Step 4
In a medium bowl, combine spinach, feta cheese, mozzarella cheese, salt and pepper. Mix well until thoroughly combined.
Step 5
Lay pastry sheet squares on a cutting board. Brush them with butter.
Step 6
Optional: Cut off a 1/4 inch slice off of each pastry square to make stems for shamrocks.
Step 7
Divide spinach/feta filling between the two pastry squares and spread it evenly all over the square.
Step 8
Using a knife or a pizza cutter, cut pastry squares into long strips that are about an inch to inch and a half wide.
Step 9
Starting with each opposite end, roll both ends of the strip towards its center. Lay it on it's side and gently form a heart by softly pressing the sides. Repeat with two more strips and lay the hearts on the baking sheet, ends together, to form a shamrock. Brush pastry with butter on all the sides, especially in between each pastry, butter will work like glue.
Step 10
Repeat with remaining pastry strips. You should be able to get 3-4 shamrocks, depending on how wide you will cut the strips.
Step 11
You can make stems by placing the thin strips that you cut off together into one long strip and cutting it in Then fold each smaller strip in half and tuck it under each shamrock on the baking sheet.
Step 12
Bake for 20-23 minutes, until pastry is golden brown and puffed even in the center.
