These sfogliatine glassate are light, crispy puff pastry cookies topped with a glossy sugar glaze and delicate strawberry jam detail. They bake golden, airy, and perfectly balanced between crunch and sweetness just like in Italian pastry shops.

Ingredients

2 sheets frozen puff pastry, thawed

75 g confectioners’ sugar

15 g egg white

23 tbsp strawberry jam

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350℉ (180℃) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone mats.
  2. Cut each puff pastry sheet into 16 rectangles, about 1×4 inches (2.5×10 cm).
  3. Arrange the rectangles on the prepared baking sheets, leaving space between them.
  4. Sift the confectioners’ sugar into a small bowl, then mix it with egg white until smooth.
  5. Brush the glaze evenly over each pastry rectangle.
  6. Strain the strawberry jam, transfer it to a piping bag, and pipe X-shaped patterns over the glazed pastries.
  7. Bake for about 20 minutes, or until golden brown and crisp.
  8. Remove from the oven and let cool completely before serving.

Notes

Swap strawberry jam with apricot, raspberry, or cherry jam for variety.

Use a mix of jams for colorful patterns.

Sprinkle finely chopped nuts on top of the glaze before baking for extra crunch.

Re-crisp in a low oven (300℉/150℃) for a few minutes if they soften.

Homemade puff pastry can be used instead of frozen sheets.
