Thanks.

 

Its pretty straightforward: make a cream ("crema Catalana") from 500 ml milk, boiled with orange zest, a cinnamon stick, 100 g of sugar, cooled a bit and then thickened with 6-7 tempered egg yolks mixed with tablespoon cornflour. Reheat until set and let cool. Stirr occasionally to retain the creamy texture.

Line a baking sheet with puff pastry, brush a thick layer of cream over it and top with another large sheet of puff pastry. Brush with an egg yolk mixed with milk for glazing. Sprinkle with sugar and pine nuts. Bake at 200 oC (preheated) for 20-25 min, until golden brown. If it browns too fast, cover with aluminium foil.

Let cool cool completely and serve cut into small squares.
