PALMIER COOKIES RECIPE

Elegant palmiers made from puff pastry are one of my all-time favorite treats. 

I just love the crunch of the sugar, cinnamon with the crunch of the pastry, and the way the flaky, buttery layers practically melt on the tongue. 

It feels so fancy to put them on a cookie tray for a spot of afternoon tea. 

Despite their impressive nature, these cookies are super easy to make. 

These pretty little cookies are similar to the bakery staples, but made with a flaky, homey, easier version of puff pastry. 

A liberal sprinkle of cinnamon and sugar in between the layers gives each cookie both sweetness and a hint of spice.

Ingredients

1/2 cup sugar
2-4 teaspoons ground cinnamon ( you can add more or less)
1/2 (17.3-ounce) package (1 sheet) frozen puff pastry, thawed

Directions 

Step 1: Preheat the oven to 200 C OR 400 F.
Step 2 : On a clean work surface sprinkle some sugar and cinnamon. 
Step 3 : Lay the puff pastry on top of the sugar and sprinkle the remaining sugar mix on top of the pastry.
Step 4 : Using a rolling pin, roll the sugar into the dough, and roll the dough into an even rectangle, about 1/8-inch thick.
Step 5 : With knife mark the middle of the pastry, do not cut it, just gently mark it. 
Step 6 : Working from the short ends of the rectangle, roll up each end of the dough to meet in the middle. Lay the rolls on top of each other and gently press to secure. Wrap the dough in plastic and let sit in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
Step 7 :  Cut the dough into slices that are 1/4-inch thick. Lay the slices on 2 parchment paper and bake in the preheated oven for 12 minutes. Turn the slices over and bake for another 6 to 7 minutes. When done, the cookies should be golden brown.
Step 8 : Remove from the oven, and cool on a rack before serving. Enjoy!
