Instructions
- 1
Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F) and prepare the pastry dough. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, and salt. Add the softened butter and mix until the dough comes together. Gradually add the eggs and milk, mixing until a smooth dough forms. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 10 minutes.

Roll out the chilled pastry dough to a thickness of 3 mm (1/8 inch). Transfer the dough to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Brush the pastry with the melted butter and sprinkle with brown sugar. Bake for 15 minutes.

While the pastry is baking, prepare the praline filling. In a small saucepan, combine the praline paste and brown sugar. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture caramelizes and forms a smooth, dark brown paste. Remove from heat and let cool.

Remove the pastry from the oven and allow it to cool for 5 minutes. Spread the cooled praline paste evenly over the pastry, leaving a 1 cm (1/2 inch) border around the edges. Roll the pastry into a tight log and cut into 6 equal pieces.

Place the pastry pieces on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for an additional 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown. Allow the pastry to cool for 5 minutes before serving.
