This cinnamon pull apart twist is the perfect is an easy and delicious dessert for Rosh Hashanah and a true crowd pleaser!
Ingredients:
2 sheets of puff pastry I use @pepperidgefarm
1/3 cup of dark brown sugar
1/3 cup light brown sugar
1/2 stick (1/4 cup) of margarine (soften at room temperature)
1 teaspoon vanilla sugar
2 teaspoons of cinnamon
1 Egg for brushing
Directions:
Deforest puff pastry sheets until they are soft enough to work with but still cold. Roll out each puff pastry dough a little bit using a rolling pin. It should not be very thin. Place both sheets on top of each other. Place an 8 inch round pan upside down and using a knife cut trace out puff pastry sheet into a large circle and discard the extra puff pastry that was cut off. Place one puff pastry circle on a parchment lined metal baking sheet spray with cooking spray.
Combine all sugars, cinnamon, and margarine. Mix until all combine. Spread sugar mixture in one side of one puff pastry circle. Then place other puff pastry circle on top pressing down lightly to make other puff pastry stick. Using a small 4 ounce mason jar or plastic cup place the rim of the cup on to the center puff pastry to make a light indent in the center of the puff pastry. Cut 2 inch slices starting from the circular indent. Then twist each slice gently all in one direction. Then brush with egg and place in 400 degree oven for about 18-20 minutes or until golden brown. Let completed cool before lifting from pan.
