Legendary Puff Pastry Cake

Legendary Puff Pastry Cake

INGREDIENTS:

For the Cake

2 packages (17.3 oz each) puff pastry, thawed (the star of the show!)

1 cup granulated sugar

½ cup unsalted butter, melted

1 tsp vanilla extract

1 egg (for egg wash)

Optional Upgrades

1 tsp cinnamon (for warmth)

Zest of 1 lemon or orange (for brightness)

Powdered sugar (for dusting)

DIRECTIONS:

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.
