Instructions

1 ✓

Prepare the puff pastry dough (detrempe + 3 folds). Chill in the refrigerator.

Tip: Keeping the dough cold is the key to success.
2 ✓

Mix the sour cream with crushed garlic, salt, and half of the cheese.

Tip: You can sprinkle the other half of the cheese on top.
3 ✓

Roll out the dough and cut into triangles. Place a spoonful of filling on each and roll up.

Tip: Seal the ends as best as you can.
4 ✓

Let proof until doubled in size (approx. 1-1.5 hours).

Tip: Proof in a lukewarm place, but not too hot, or the butter will melt!
5 ✓

Brush with egg wash and bake at 350°F (180°C) until golden brown.

Tip: Best served fresh.

Recipe FAQ

The filling leaked out. Why?
The sour cream might have been too runny, or the rolling was too loose. Be sure to use full-fat, thick sour cream!
