Tongues made from layered yeast dough
Description
Perfect for tea and coffee. Such a treat is becoming increasingly rare on store shelves, so it's easy to bake it at home. You can make the pastries with a filling, for example, apples or berries, or simply sprinkle them with sugar on top—both versions work well. This baked good doesn't require special effort or skills, making it suitable even for beginner cooks. You can also involve children in the process. Serve cooled or slightly warm.
Instructions

Step 1
1. I first thaw the ready-made dough, then place it on a floured surface to prevent sticking. I cut the dough into rectangles or any other shape, with an optimal thickness of 0.5–0.7 centimeters. I transfer the pieces onto a floured baking sheet.

Step 2
2. I brush the dough strips with leftover black tea brew, which gives the baked goods a pleasant caramel note, then generously sprinkle them with granulated sugar and bake in a preheated oven at 180 degrees for 15 minutes.

Step 3
3. The baked goods cool down very quickly, so I serve them immediately with tea, juice, or other beverages.
