Robert Ryan of Newton, Iowa is known for these pretty sweet treats. My family and co-workers love them, he says. Ingredients:
1 package (17.3 ounces) frozen puff pastry, thawed |
1 egg |
1/4 cup milk |
1 to 2 tablespoons coarse or granulated sugar |
filling: |
1/4 cup king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
1 cup milk |
1 cup butter, softened |
1 cup sugar |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1/2 teaspoon almond extract |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
Directions:
1. Carefully open each puff pastry sheet. Cut each sheet of pastry at creases, forming 3 strips. Cut each strip widthwise into 7 pieces.
2. Combine egg and milk; lightly brush egg mixture over pastry. Sprinkle with sugar. Place on lightly greased baking sheets. Bake at 400° for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown. Remove to wire racks to cool. Split into top and bottom halves.
3. In a saucepan, combine the flour and milk until smooth. Bring to a boil over medium heat; cook and stir for 1 minute or until thickened. Cool.
4. Transfer to a bowl; beat in the butter, sugar, vanilla, almond extract and salt until light and fluffy, about 10 minutes. Spread 1 tablespoonful on bottom half of each pastry; replace tops. Store in refrigerator. Yield: about 3-1/2 dozen.
