Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
Roll out the thawed puff pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface to a 1/4-inch thickness.
-
Spread the almond paste evenly over the puff pastry sheet, leaving a small border around the edges.
-
Starting from one edge, roll the puff pastry tightly into a log. Brush the edge of the pastry with the beaten egg to seal the log.
-
Using a sharp knife, slice the log into 1/2-inch thick rounds. Place the rounds on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them apart.
-
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until they are golden brown and puffed up.
-
While the cookies are baking, prepare the glaze by whisking together the powdered sugar, almond extract, and enough water to create a smooth, pourable glaze.
-
Once the cookies are done baking, remove them from the oven and allow them to cool slightly on the baking sheet.
-
Drizzle the glaze over the warm cookies and sprinkle with sliced almonds for added crunch and decoration.
-
Allow the glaze to set before serving the Sfogliatine Glazed Puff Pastry cookies. Enjoy these delicious Italian treats with a cup of tea or coffee for a cozy and festive holiday treat.
