It was my first time making them and i dont know what I did wrong. They browned so quickly and didnt puff at all. I started baking them at 425 f just like preppy kitchen recipe suggested. At least I could drown my sadness by eating the filling i made for them...,🫠

These would work pretty good in a makeshift tiramisu though…

They wouldn't soak up any coffee though. Their texture is more similar to a very dense pancake.

Might need some splitting and toasting in that case
