My Cinnamon Snails, aka Zimtschnecken, use frozen puff pastry. Deliciously simple, these are great additions to your collection of quick Christmas recipes.
In fact, these have become regular additions to my holiday baking. Why? Because they are easy. Because they are delicious. And, most importantly, because everyone likes them.
The "American way" to make these cinnamon puffs is to use brown sugar.
The "German way" to make these Zimtschnecken is to use white sugar. Try it, I think you'll like it!
Buying and keeping frozen puff pastry in the freezer means you'll always be ready to make these. Follow the thawing instructions on the package. Keep thawed dough in fridge until ready to use.
Don't forget to buy more so that you'll always have some to make these and other quick puff pastry recipes.
Although I haven't yet tried it, using partly vanilla sugar should be really good.
Get ready for Christmas! Grab your copy of Oma's collection of her favorites in Christmas Cookies e-Cookbook.
Take a peek at all Oma's eCookbooks. They make sharing your German heritage a delicious adventure!
These really are best freshly made. Plan them that way.
Do not bake these ahead of time. They do keep for a couple of days, if there are leftovers. Seal them well in containers once they are cold so they stay crispy.
But, FRESH is best!
