Look at this golden, sugary caramel crusty pastry

Palmier cookies are easy to make with only three simple ingredients.

A Palmier ( French —’ palm tree’) is also called a pig ear, elephant ear, or butterfly cookie. No matter what you call them, they’re super easy and yummy, and I could quickly eat the whole batch myself.

Ingredients:

• Frozen puff pastry
• 200 gr Sugar
• 1 tsp cinnamon
• Optional: crushed walnuts.

Instructions:

• 1.  If your puff has been frozen, place it in the refrigerator to thaw overnight, and preheat your oven to 400F/200°C.
• 2. Mix sugar and cinnamon.
• 3. Sprinkle them on your work surface generously the sugar mixture.
• 4. Place the puff pastry on top.
• 5. Sprinkle more sugar on top.
• 6. Roll the dough until it becomes thin to ensure the sugar sticks to the dough.
• 7.  Fold the dough’s left and right sides inward to meet in the middle, like a closed book.
• 9. Sprinkle with more sugar with each folding to ensure it is covered with sugar.
• 10. Transfer the log to a baking sheet. Cover with plastic wrap and chill for 30 minutes to give the dough time to firm up.
• 11. Cut the log into cookies that are approximately 1cm wide.
• 12. Coat each slice with the remaining sugar mixture and place on the prepared baking sheets.
• 13. Bake for 10 minutes with a baking sheet until golden brown.
• Let the palmiers cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet, then transfer to a cooling rack to cool completely.
