Braided Raspberry Almond Cream Pastry

From Artisan Bread in Five Minutes a Day.

I made the Brioche dough, rolled it out and transferred it to a parchment covered cookie sheet.

Then I put the almond cream down the center third.

Spread half a cup of raspberry jam. . .
Put some fresh raspberries on top of that.
Using a pizza cutter, I cut strips along each side - making sure that I line up each side so I have the same amount of strips on both sides.
Pulling a strip from each side, I cross each one over the other - just alternating each strip.
Finally, I put an egg wash on top and sugar. It's waiting to go into the oven right now.
I'll post photo's of the finished product.

Note: This is the second loaf I made. The first one was easier to work with as the dough was only a day old. This dough is three days old and became wet - which made it difficult to "braid" the dough. Once it's baked, I'm sure it'll look better. I'm just not happy with how sticky the strips were while braiding this.
