Peach Dumplings - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    4 peaches, large and very ripe
    1 sheet puff pastry
    1/4 cup brown sugar (loose, not packed)
    1/4 sugar
    2 tablespoons butter, softened
    1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    1 teaspoon cinnamon, ground
    1/4 teaspoon nutmeg, ground
    2 tablespoons butter, melted
    1 teaspoon sugar
    1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
Preparation
    Preheat oven to 400\u00b0F.
    Onto a flat work surface lightly dusted with flour, unfold one sheet of puffed pastry. Lightly dust the surface of the pastry with flour. With a rolling pin, lightly roll until square spreads to the size of a 12\" x 12\" square. Slice into four evenly sized squares.
    Remove skins from peaches, slice in half and remove pits. Set aside.
    In a small mixing bowl, combine brown sugar, sugar, butter, vanilla, cinnamon and nutmeg. The mixture will be crumbly.
    Into one half of each peach, spoon 1 tbs. of the sugar & spices mixture into where the peach pit once was. Sandwich with other half of peach.
    Place peach onto one puffed pastry square. Gently fold each corner to the top-center of each peach. Repeat with each peach.
    In a small bowl, combine sugar and cinnamon.
    With a pastry brush, brush melted butter over each pastry-covered peach. Then dust each with sugar. Sprinkle cinnamon-sugar over each peach.
    Bake for 30 - 40 minutes or until lightly browned and crispy.
