Roll out the dough thinly with a rolling pin and cut with round cutter discs many regular six inches in diameter. Place a little filling inside each disk, fold it on itself to form a half moon, pressing with your fingertips around the edge so the filling does not spill. Joining the two ends of the crescent dough, shaping round the base of the beret.
