If using canned escargot, rinse them under cold water. If using fresh escargot, ensure they are cleaned and cooked according to your preference.

Assemble the Dish
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Roll out the puff pastry sheets on a floured surface. Cut into squares large enough to wrap around the escargot. Place a tablespoon of the garlic herb butter mixture in the center of each square, add an escargot on top, and then fold the pastry over the filling, sealing the edges with a fork.

Bake
Place the wrapped escargot on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Brush the tops with the beaten egg to give them a golden color. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the pastry is puffed and golden brown.
