- Using a pastry cutter, make 22 strips. Roll each strip lengthwise so that it doubles in length.
- Start at the end of a mould, wrap the dough around the mould in a spiral manner.
- Lightly press along with your fingers all the wrapped edges to seal them.
- Repeat the same with the remaining cream horns moulds.
- Place the wrapped moulds on a parchment lined baking sheet. Bake for 12 min or until golden brown. I baked them in batches of 11.
- Remove the horns from oven. Allow to cool for 10 minutes on the baking sheet. Remove the moulds and transfer the horns to a large plate.
- CREAM CHEESE FILLINNG
- In a bowl of your electrical mixer, beat whipping cream with icing sugar until just the cream reaches stiff peaks. Add in cream cheese, vanilla and lemon zest. Beat 20-30 seconds.
- Fill the pastry bag ( with 2D tip) with filling & pipe it into each cream horn.
- Roast 2 tbsp crushed almonds. Allow to completely cool.
- Top each cream horn with some roasted crushed almonds.
