Sandwich Pastry

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Cut the prepared second paste into lengths about 3.5 inches long and ¼ inch thick.

  2. Lay each piece on its side on a baking sheet, spaced 1 inch apart; you will need 24 pieces.

  3. Bake until half done, then cover each piece thickly with sifted sugar.

  4. Return to the oven until lightly colored.

  5. Remove from the oven and hold a red-hot shovel above them until they have a beautiful gloss.

  6. Transfer to paper on a dish.

  7. Spread jam on one piece and place another piece on top until all are assembled.

  8. Serve on a napkin.
