Palmiers (Elephant Ears)

Puff pastry makes these elephant ears so easy - no messy flour to deal with. Plus, these are baked instead of deep fried so they are lower in fat than their from-scratch counterparts.

ingredients
1/2 cup sugar, PLUS"PLUS" means this ingredient in addition to the one on the next line, often with divided uses
2 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon cinnamon (optional)
1 pound puff pastry, at room temperature
directions
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
Sprinkle the two tablespoons of sugar over work surface and roll puff pastry out to 10" x 12" rectangle. Combine remaining sugar with cinnamon (if using) and sprinkle over pastry.
Roll each long end toward the center of the pastry vertically, halfway inward, so that the two rolls meet in the middle and are touching. Press the two sides together to form a log. Refrigerate for at least half an hour or freeze for 20 minutes for easier slicing.
Starting at one end of log, slice pieces in 1/2-inch thickness. Lightly sprinkle sugar on each side and carefully place on a parchment or Silpat lined baking sheets, leaving plenty of room between each.
Bake in middle of oven for 10-15 minutes until sugar has caramelized and cookies are lightly browned and crisp.
Allow to cool on a rack for at least 10 minutes.
