On a floured work surface, roll dough into two 12 by 8 inch (30 by 20 cm) rectangles. Sprinkle the dough with sugar and press gently with the roller to make a sugar stick. Put the dough on the baking tray. Cover with parchment paper and place a second baking sheet on it to prevent the dough from rolling. Bake for 20 minutes or until pastry is golden. Remove the baking sheet and the top butter paper and let it cool on a wire rack.
