Details

Preparation

Step 1

Sprinkle sugar over clean surface. Roll chilled dough into a 24x10 inch rectangle. Spread dough with either of the almond fillings. Fold lengthwise into thirds, making a strip about 3 inches wide. Roll the strip lightly to make it thinner and longer.

Cut strips into 20x1 inch wide strips. Make 4 cuts along one long side of the slice, each 1/2" apart. Gently lift each pastry to well greased cookie sheet, curving the slice slightly to make a crescent shape and open the cuts.

Cover cookie sheet with wax paper, refrigerate for 20 minutes.

Place in middle of 400 degree oven. Immediately lower oven temperature to 350 degrees. Bake 20 minutes or until golden brown.
