I am so disappointed. I made these today with high hopes. I followed the directions in this blog post. The pastries looked great when I took them out of the oven at 50 minutes. They were nice and brown as the instructions said. Pretty but not at all cooked inside ... just plain raw. Not pastry cream custardy ... they were raw with the taste of raw eggs. My oven heats correctly, so it felt pretty comfortable that it wasn't an oven problem. I then checked the regular KAF Almond Puff recipe using the link in this post and it said to bake the pastries for 50 to 65 minutes. The recipe posted in the Almond Puff Bake-a-long also said 50 to 65 minutes. That is really different from this post of 45 to 50 minutes. Wish I had reviewed all three sets of instructions before I made this. So for others making this recipe be aware that the time here in this post is not consistent with what is posted elsewhere on the KAF site. I know baking times are just guidelines, but that is a pretty wide swing.
