Instructions

  1. Mix the egg yolks with a little water.
  2. Roll out a roll of puff pastry and brush thinly with the egg yolk water. Spread some brown sugar on the roll so that it is covered evenly but not too thickly. Place another roll of puff pastry on top and press lightly with the rolling pin. Brush these again with the egg yolk water and sprinkle with the sugar. Place the next roll on top and press down lightly with the rolling pin. Then brush this roll thinly with the egg yolk water.
  3. Now carefully lift all three layers on the short side and fold over each other up to the middle, do the same on the other side. Now both ends should touch in the middle. Now carefully lift one side and fold it over the other so that the two ends are inside.
  4. Now cut about 1 cm wide strips with a sharp knife on one side where you can see the layers folded. Do not put the strips on baking paper more than six per sheet, as the puff pastry is still rising.
  5. Bake the pastries at 200 degrees top / bottom heat until the desired degree of browning for about 15 minutes, take them out of the oven and let them cool down.
  6. After getting cold, cover the lower arches with couverture.
  7. With 3 rolls of puff pastry make about 15-16 pig ears.
