做法:
1)砂糖和蛋黄混合,用手动打蛋器搅打3、4分钟至砂糖完全融化、蛋液颜色变白,然后加入玉米粉20克混合均匀;
2)将1/2根香草棒用小刀纵向刨开,刮出香草籽倒入牛奶锅中,香草棒也一起放入牛奶中,小火煮开后立即关火。捞出香草棒,稍晾一两分钟。然后缓慢倒入蛋黄液中,边倒边搅拌均匀;
3)搅拌均匀的牛奶蛋液从新倒入锅中,小火加热,边加热边不停搅拌,大约2分钟后变浓稠如浆糊状即可关火,晾凉后备用;
4)将从冰箱取出的千层酥面团擀开,擀成厚度为0.3CM的长方型面片。用刀裁切掉不平整的边缘进行整型。用叉子在表面均匀的扎上小孔,以防烤时起鼓。整形好的面片放入冰箱冷冻20分钟以上,防止烤时收缩,烤前面皮上刷蛋液。
5)烤箱预热200度,放中上层,烤10-15分钟至表面金黄即可。
6)酥皮烤好晾凉,切成10*20cm长方形,每层铺蛋黄酱(罐头黄桃切小块加入蛋黄酱),共三层。剩余的清酥坯捣碎混合剩余的蛋黄酱涂在周围,再沾上烤熟的杏仁片,表面用可可粉和糖粉装饰,食用时可再切小块。

4)Take out the pastry dough from the fridge, roll out into a rectangled piece with the thickness of 0.3cm, trim the edge. Use a fork, evenly make some little holes on the doughpiece surface so that it won't be convex when baking;
Put the dough piece back to the fridge, freeze for more than 20 minutes (also could prevent to be convex when baking). Before baking, brush some whisked egg on the dough piece surface;
5)Pre-heat the oven to 200C, put the ready dough piece into the higher-medium shelf, bake for 15-20 minutes until golden;
6)Cool the baked pastry then cut into 10*20cm rectangled pieces;

Finally, dust some cocoa powder and icing sugar on the pastry's surface for decoration;
