How To Cook: |

1. Preheat the oven to 400°. On a floured surface, roll the dough into a 4-by-20- inch rectangle. With a pastry wheel or small, sharp knife, trim the ragged edges of the dough and cut the rectangle into 5 parts, making 4-by-4-inch squares of dough.

2. Fold in each corner to meet in the center, and press down the points to seal them. Place a heaping tablespoon of pastry cream in the center of each envelope and top with a teaspoon of red currant jelly.
|
3. With a pastry brush or paper towel, grease a cookie sheet with 1 tablespoon of butter and sprinkle it with flour, tapping off any excess.
|
4. Place the "Spandauer" on the sheet and set in the middle of the oven for 10 minutes. Reduce the heat to 350° and bake 15 minutes, until the pastries are a light gold.

5. With a wide spatula, transfer them to a wire cake rack to cool.
