Ingredients
3/4 cup sugar
1 puff pastry sheet
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 450°F (232°C).
- Place the puff pastry on a floured surface. Sprinkle it generously with sugar and press it in with a rolling pin.
- Fold both long sides of the pastry toward the center. Then fold each side again to the center, and finally fold in half, forming a log.
- Cut the log into 1/4-inch slices. Place the slices cut-side down on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Bake for 6 minutes. Flip the cookies and bake for another 5 minutes or until golden brown and caramelized.
- Let cool on a rack and enjoy!
Notes
- Use cold puff pastry to maintain flakiness. If using frozen dough, thaw just until pliable—about 30 minutes.
- For best texture, use coarse sugar like demerara and be generous with it.
- You can freeze unbaked palmiers in a single layer, then store in a bag. Bake from frozen, adding a minute or two to the baking time.
