Fold each square of pastry into a triangle; press edges of foldover together with a fork. Bake at 425 degrees for 13 to 15 minutes or until foldovers are puffed and golden brown. Let foldovers cool on a wire rack. Combine mangos, brown sugar, mac nuts, butter, lemon juice, and cornstarch in a medium saucepan, stirring until cornstarch dissolves; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low; cook, uncovered, about 3-4 minutes. Slice foldovers in half horizontally, not cutting completely through long side of pastry. Spoon hot filling into foldovers; sprinkle tops with powdered sugar. Yield: 1 dozen.
