What is "palmier"?

Palmiers, also known as elephant ears or palm leaves, are a type of French pastry that is made from puff pastry dough that is rolled out, spread with sugar, and then folded and rolled again to create a layered, palm-shaped cookie. The pastry is then sliced into thin rounds and baked until golden brown and crispy. Palmiers are typically sweet, with a caramelized sugar flavor that comes from the sugar used in the dough. They can be enjoyed as a snack or as a dessert, and are often served with coffee or tea. Palmiers are a versatile pastry that can be customized with a variety of different flavors, such as cinnamon or chocolate, and can be made in both large and small sizes.
