Improved Butterfly Cake

Overview

Butterfly puff pastry is a delicious snack with a sweet and crispy texture! The general method of making puff pastry is to use whole butter or margarine. I personally feel that it is a bit greasy, and the high fat is easy to make fleshy. It is not suitable for the elderly, so I researched and improved the recipe. I think it is good, and I will share it with everyone

Ingredients

Steps

1. 1 Put 220 grams of low-gluten flour, 30 grams of high-gluten flour, 1.5 grams of salt, and 8 grams of sugar into a bowl and mix well. Then add 40 grams of softened butter and add water while kneading the dough. The amount of water depends on the softness of your dough

   

2. 2 Wrap the kneaded dough in plastic wrap and leave it for 20 minutes

   

3. 3 Use 70 grams of salad oil, 80 grams of low-gluten flour and 30 grams of milk powder and mix into a puff pastry! I just replaced 180 grams of butter with this pastry

   

4. 4 Roll the dough into a rectangular shape, place the pastry in the middle of the dough, and gently roll it into thin sheets. The dough must be larger than the pastry so that it can be wrapped easily

   

5. 5 Fold the dough from both sides to the middle to wrap the puff pastry, press the top and bottom edges tightly, and then turn it sideways

   

6. 6 Use a rolling pin to press from the middle to both sides to drain away the air and press it into pieces. Pressing is the main task and rolling is the supplement. Because the pastry cannot be rolled too hard or it will break

   

7. 7 Then fold it from both sides to the middle, like folding a quilt, fold it into 4 layers and leave it for 10 minutes

   

8. 8 Then press and roll it into a piece, then fold it! Just repeat 7 2-3 times

   

9. 9 After the last press and roll into a piece, brush with a layer of egg wash. If you like sweetness, sprinkle with a layer of sugar, and then roll it up from both sides to the middle! Place it in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to make it easier to cut!

   

10. 10 Take out and cut into thin slices, shape and put into baking pan

    

11. 11 Shape the butterfly puff pastry and bake in a preheated oven at 180 degrees for 15-20 minutes
