After cooking, add caster sugar and cook for another five minutes, take out and cool in ice cubes, and drain the water

Soften the butter to the point where you press your fingers, add powdered sugar and almond powder
5.
Put it in the blender and mix it into a puree

Take it out and pat it flat and dust it to a thickness of 3 mm.

12.
Put it in the preheated oven, heat up to 180 degrees, and lower to 200 degrees for 40-45 minutes.I bake two: one is 40 minutes, which is tender and smooth, the skin is a little cracked during the movement, and the other is 45 minutes. The color is darker, but it’s very stiff, and it looks like I like it. I took both photos. Just sprinkle with powdered sugar and decorate the edges after cooling.
Tips:
This square puff pastry should be rolled a bit thicker, and it should be frozen and then powdered before rolling, otherwise it will be sticky
