Jerboa pillow
The jerboa pillow is a super easy to throw together cookie!
First, mix the ground walnuts with the jam, sugar, and chopped dried apricots. Grate the lemon zest and add the vanilla essence.
Spread one of the puff pastry sheets on a board and divide it into four long strips along its long side. Place the walnut filling on one half of the rectangles, then brush the edges with lightly beaten egg. Fold the other half of the puff pastry over the filling and press down in a circle with a fork. Place the pillows on a baking sheet lined with baking paper, then brush the tops with egg. Repeat with the other puff pastry sheet. Bake in an oven preheated to 180 degrees for 18-20 minutes until golden brown.
Meanwhile, melt the chocolate and butter over a water bath and pour the finished glaze into a piping bag. When the pillows are baked, let them cool for at least 30 minutes. Finally, carefully spread the chocolate glaze over the tops of the pillows.
