The completed challenge!
The September 2009 Daring Bakers' challenge was hosted by Steph of A Whisk and a Spoon. She chose the French treat, Vols-au-Vent based on the Puff Pastry recipe by Michel Richard from the cookbook Baking With Julia by Dorie Greenspan.
She was so disappointed that we weren't going to be able to eat the challenge that night, that she got to make a bonus... brownies.
The sliced dough, ready to go!
1 pound of butter goes in this dough!
Grandma's 50 year old rolling pin...

Little helper. Practicing his rolling technique. It included jabbing the end of it into my dough!
Our cutouts... Sahara made other shapes and twisty sticks later.
Fresh out of the oven. I forgot to tamp down the centers of the vol au vents.
