Raspberry Palmiers

Ah, palmier! Probably the world’s easiest dessert, considering the concept and the preparation. The only thing that is easier than making this is going to the store and buying something already made.

Because of all those things it might resemble when you look at the photo :-P But not everything in life is beautiful, and just because something doesn’t look beautiful, it doesn’t mean that it’s not good. And these pavlovas are sooo good. Maybe even better than their original packed with fruits. You need to trust me on that :)
