Tips:

The time and temperature of this recipe could vary a bit depending on your oven and on your taste.

Always use the fan option for baking this puff pastry treat but if you prefer more pale Sfogliatine, you should bake them at 170°C for about 20 minutes; if you prefer a more golden brown puff pastry, you can set your oven at 190°C abd bake for about 10-12 minutes. They are ready when reach the golden color you prefer.
