These might just be the most addictive cookies you ever make! Anybody else have a weird addiction to crispy things? A quick Internet search turned up articles like “Why Do Humans Crave Crispy Food?” and “Appeal of Crunchy Food-Why We Love Crispy Things?” so it must be real.
These are so sugary, buttery, crispy, caramel-y because you are actually just layering puff pastry and sugar. That’s literally the recipe! Anything with puff pastry generally gets a thumbs-up in my book, and it makes it THAT much easier to throw these together. I absolutely love Dufour puff pastry-it’s the only all-butter puff pastry I can get my hands on. It is significantly more expensive than your typical supermarket puff pastry made with shortening and it can be quite difficult to find, but if you can and you want to splurge, I suggest trying it. Pepperidge Farm is still delicious, more easily accessible and has a better price-point (see taste testings between Dufour and Pepperidge Farm here).
You can watch my girl Ina make these here because the folds might trip you up, like it did me (I’m a visual learner).
