Raspberry, Chocolate and Almond Kifli

Method

To make the pastry, place all the ingredients in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Mix together on medium speed until well combined and a dough is formed.

Divide the dough into 4 equal balls and wrap each ball in plastic wrap. Rest in the fridge for at least 15 minutes.

Meanwhile, make the filling by stirring together the jam, chopped dark chocolate and slivered almonds.

Take one ball of pastry and roll out into a circle, around 3mm thick. Using a pizza cutter or sharp knife, slice into 8 equal triangles, just like slicing a pizza.

Take a teaspoon of the filling and place near the wide end of a triangle. Roll into a crescent shape. Repeat until you have used all the pastry and filling.

Place on baking paper lined biscuit trays and bake in batches in a preheated 200°C oven (180°C fan forced) for 12-15 minutes. They should be slightly golden, but will still be mostly pale all over.

Cool on a wire rack and dust with icing sugar before serving.
