  • ½ tsp vanilla extract
  • ½ cup raspberries
  • ½ cup blueberries

Instructions

  1. 1

    Slice 2 large croissants in half horizontally, leaving one side attached if possible, and toast them lightly in a toaster oven or under a broiler for 2-3 minutes until golden and crisp.

  3. 3

    Spread the whipped cream generously on the bottom half of each croissant, using about half of the cream.

  4. 4

    Top the cream with 1/2 cup raspberries and 1/2 cup blueberries, distributing them evenly.

  5. 5

    Place the top half of the croissant over the berries, then dust with extra powdered sugar if desired. Serve immediately.
