So pleased with myself!

Puff Pastry. Never thought I would enjoy something like that. Rolling dough. Rolling butter. Combining, rolling, turning, folding, rolling, folding, turning, chilling, waiting, rolling, turning, waiting...you get the idea. But then we finally made our Pithivier which is the puff pastry with frangipane piped on the inside and a design carved in the top with a blade. If it's done correctly it will rise high and brown evenly and become the most wonderfully crisp and flaky decadent dessert.
I am just so pleased that I created this from some flour, water, vinegar, salt and butter.
