Orejones

1.Preheat oven to 200C. Roll pastry on a lightly floured work surface to 3mm thick and refrigerate until firm (20 minutes), then cut into 10cm strips and cut each strip on a slight angle to create 13cm-long diamond shapes. Working with one piece at a time (keep remaining pastry refrigerated until required), brush with eggwash and coat eggwash side with shredded coconut. Wrap around a 15mm-diameter stainless-steel rod (see note), coconut-side outward, pressing opposite corners to seal, forming a diamond-shaped cylinder. Repeat until rod is filled, place on a baking tray lined with baking paper and bake until pastry is golden and crisp (10-15 minutes). Cool, slide orejones off rods, clean rods, repeat with remaining pastry and set aside.

2.Meanwhile, for vanilla crema, whisk cream, icing sugar and vanilla seeds until soft peaks form. Transfer to a piping bag fitted with a 1cm star nozzle and pipe into orejones, then serve immediately.
