Matchsticks: A frugal favourite, anyone can make!!


SERVES 4


2 sheets puff pastry, thawed 
1 cup cream, whipped 
4 tbs. strawberry jam 
2 tbs. icing sugar

Preheat oven to 200°C/400F .

 Roll out pastry, thinning it slightly, cut into 4 lenghtways strips (may get 5). Line two baking trays with baking (parchment) paper and place pastry on each. 

Prick well and chill for 15 minutes in freezer. 
Slice each sheet in quarters and then half each quarter. 
Separate and bake in oven for 8–10 minutes or until pale golden brown. 
Using an egg flip, carefully turn pastry and bake for a further 6–8 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to cool. 
Spread the first sheet with jam and the second with cream and join together so that plain pastry faces up.
