Palmiers

Julia will never know you didn't roll out layer upon layer of filo dough to make these swirly, sweet-but-not-too-sweet palmiers.

In half an hour, you can whip out a pastry treat that rivals the finest pâtisserie (thank you, grocery store frozen section).

The subtle cardamom ― substitute cinnamon if you're not a fan ― adds an elevating note of exotic spice.
