Cook the prunes, water, and sugar for 12 minutes, until softened.
Add the lemon juice, puree the mixture, and cool.
Make short cuts from the corners of the puff pastry squares toward the center.
Place prune puree in the center of each square and fold the corners like a star.
Brush with beaten egg.
Bake at 200°C for 18 minutes, until puffed and browned.
Sprinkle with powdered sugar once cool.
💡 Tip: The prune puree must cool completely; hot filling softens the puff pastry layers too early.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve joulutorttu with warm coffee and optional vanilla ice cream.
