• Dust all purpose flour on a clean work surface
• Place the puff sheet on the floured surface and slightly roll it using rolling pin

• Spread brown sugar mixture over the puff sheet

• Start folding the sides towards the center so they go halfway to the middle

• Fold them again so the two folds meet exactly at the middle of the dough

• Now fold one half over the other half as though closing a book
