Thanks to Serious Eats & Shamiq, I now know that TJs sells these lovely things.

$3.99 for 4 frozen kougin amann, way cheaper than any bakery. And way less work than making them myself.

Results? Pretty good. Especially given that I could eat them warm out of the oven. Flakey, sugary, slightly crunchy. My weekend plans involve taking some of these apart and trying to add in marmalade, fruit or chocolate.
