Method

1

Thaw the pastry.

2

Roll out the sheets slightly.

3

Bake without piercing with a fork to ensure tall, golden layers.

4

Trim the top crust off each layer, place them in a separate bowl, and crush them into crumbs for dusting.

5

Carefully split the remaining part of each layer into 2-3 thin sheets.

6

Assemble a rectangular or square cake by layering the sheets and piecing them together as needed.

7

Slather every layer generously with cream.

8

Coat the top with cream as well, wrap the cake tightly in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for two hours.

9

Unwrap the cake, and coat the sides and top with the reserved crumbs.

10

Chill in the fridge for another 3-4 hours, or ideally overnight.
