Sprinkle 2 teaspoons mixture onto center of each pastry square. In medium bowl, toss nectarines with 2 tablespoons sugar mixture. Arrange nectarines diagonally in pastry squares. Brush nectarines with honey. Bake until pastries are golden, about 25 minutes. Transfer to plates. Serve warm with ice cream.
