Refrigerate the assembled vol-au-vents on the lined baking sheet while you pre-heat the oven to 375 degrees. Brush the top rings lightly with egg wash, trying not to drip any down the sides (which may inhibit rise). Place the rings directly on top of the bottom rounds and very lightly press them to adhere them to the bottoms. Prick the solid bottom rounds with a fork (this is called docking, which will help keep them from puffing), and lightly brush them with egg wash.

Place the bottom rounds on a sheet pan lined with a Silpat mat or parchment paper. In a small bowl, lightly beat the egg and water together to make an egg wash. If you don’t need the scraps, freeze them for another use.) If you do need to re-roll scraps to get enough disks, be sure to use any rounds cut from the re-rolled dough for the bases, not the ring-shaped sides, as they will not puff as high. These can be re-rolled and used if you need extra dough. Using a smaller round cutter (about 1 ¼-inch wide or a little smaller), cut the centers out of half of the rounds to make rings. Half of the rounds are for the bottoms, and half are for the sides. Using a 1 3/4-inch round cutter, cut out 32 rounds.

You may remember a few weeks back I posted about this Caramelized Onion, Ham and Cheese Quiche, I loved the combination of flavors so much I decided to try it in macaroni and it is delicious, tangy, sweet and cheesy all ant the same time! I know that this week is St.Patricks day and that we should be moving away from comfort foods and on to lighter, spring like food but I could not resist sharing this scrumptious Caramelized Onion and Goat Cheese Macaroni. Good morning! I hope that you enjoyed your weekend! It was beautiful here one day, so a walk on the beach was in order and the other was rainy and overcast so I stayed in and read a good book.
