Legendary Puff Pastry Cake – My Secret 2-Sheet Masterpiece!
1. Prep the Puff Pastry
Unfold both pastry sheets and lightly roll each to smooth seams.
Brush a 9-inch springform pan with some melted butter.
🔥 Pro Tip: Keep pastry cold—if it gets too soft, chill 10 mins before assembling.
2. Layer with Buttery Goodness
Place 1 pastry sheet in the pan, letting edges hang over.
Brush with melted butter, then sprinkle ½ cup sugar (add cinnamon if using).
Repeat with the second sheet, butter, and remaining sugar.
🍰 Secret Trick: Fold overhanging edges inward to create a rustic, textured top.
3. Bake to Golden Perfection
Whisk egg + 1 tbsp water and brush over the top.
Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 40-45 mins until deep golden and puffed.
Cool 10 mins before removing the pan ring.
💥 Dramatic Moment: The cake will deflate slightly—this is normal and creates those craggily, caramelized layers!
4. Serve & Wow Everyone
Dust with powdered sugar or drizzle with chocolate or honey.
Pair with whipped cream or ice cream.
