Parshas Vayikra is the first parsha of the third sefer in the Torah. This parsha (and a large portion of this sefer) discuss the karbanos. This week the parsha reviews the karbon mincha which could be brought in different ways. One of the options was to have it baked from fine flour into unleavened wafers and smeared with oil. We copied the concept by making napoleons, the pastry dough represents the unleavened wafer and the custard represents the oil that was smeared on it.

Vayikra 2:4
We used ready-made pastry dough and custard to keep preparation time to a minimum during this very hectic season.
1 – Bake the pastry dough on 350 for about 10 minutes. Poke holes in it with a fork first so it doesn\’t rise.
2 – Spread the custard on top of one layer of pastry dough, then cover with another layer of pastry dough so you have a sandwich. Sprinkle with confectionery sugar.
