Steps:
- Take the puff pastry from the freezer and allow to fully defrost IN the packaging. 2. Preheat oven to 400 F or 200 C.3. Unroll the pastry and flatten it on the paper wrapper. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.4. In a small bowl, add the ground almonds, sugar and almond extract if using. Combine with a spoon. Sprinkle almond sugar mixture evenly all over the pastry and use a long flat-bladed knife if you have one to spread the mixture evenly on the surface. Place a sheet of parchment over the top and use a rolling pin to LIGHTLY roll over the mixture so as to press it gently into the pastry. Be careful not to roll hard so you keep the shape of the pastry. Discard parchment paper.5. Take one LONG side and tightly roll the pastry toward the middle. Stop when you get to the middle. Then take the other side of the pastry and roll toward the middle. Wrap the pastry in plastic wrap and pop in the fridge for 20 minutes to firm up. 6. Take the pastry from the fridge and cut the ends off to make it tidy. Then cut into 1/4 inch thick slices. Place flat on a parchment-lined baking sheet. You may need to gently push the cookies down if they are too thick. If you want to make a more defined shape, point the curved parts to make them like rabbit ears. This will help when baking to get the classic palmier shape. 7. Brush the tops lightly with the melted butter and another light sprinkling of sugar. Turn over and brush with butter and sprinkle sugar on the other side too. 8. Bake for approximately 15 - 20 minutes or until the cookies puff up and turn golden brown. Keep an eye on them because they will burn very easily! Halfway through, turn the cookies over so they brown evenly.9. When done, use a fish slice or similar and transfer the cookies to a cooling rack. They will get crispy once cooled.These will store, once cooled, in an airtight container for a few days. They are delicious eaten as they are, or as I do, with a scoop of ice cream!
