Palmiers

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 425F. Prepare 2 baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.

Step 2

On a clean work surface, sprinkle about ½ cup sugar across the work surface, then unfold your puff pastry onto the work surface. Using a rolling pin, roll the puff pastry out to be about a 14x14-inch rectangle.

Step 3

Generously sprinkle the top of the rolled out puff pastry with the remaining sugar, lightly press the sugar into the puff pastry.

Step 4

Fold the sides in about halfway towards the middle, then fold again until the two sides meet each other. Then finally, fold the one side on top of the other side.

Step 5

Using a sharp knife, slice into ¾-inch slices and divide the cookies evenly onto the two baking sheets, placing them cut side up. Place the baking sheets into the freezer for 15 minutes.

Step 6

After 15 minutes, remove the sheets from the freezer, then place into the oven to bake for 14-16 minutes, flipping the cookies over halfway through.

Step 7

Remove the cookies from the oven, transfer to a cooling rack and allow the cookies to fully cool before enjoying.
