King s Cake #2 Preparation

Prepare frangipane cream by boiling milk with sugar and vanilla. Combine flour, sugar, eggs, and salt in a thick-bottomed saucepan and mix together thoroughly. Gradually add the hot milk mixture and cook slowly for about 3 minutes, stirring all the time, until cream thickens. Pour the cream into a bowl and stir in 3/4 cup crushed almonds, rum, and butter. Mix well. Roll out puff pastry and cut into a 9 or 10 inch round. Cut two. Mound up pastry cream in the center of bottom pastry, leaving a 3/4 pastry ring around the edge. Place a small bean or plastic baby somewhere in the crust to symbolize the infant Jesus. Place second round over cream filling and seal around outside edges. Trace a pattern on the top of the dough with the point of a knife and brush it with egg. Bake in a 475 degree oven until the top is golden brown.
