Ingredients

  • 1 sheet puff pastry sheet
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tbsp powdered sugar
  • 1 cup strawberries

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 400°F. Roll out the 1 puff pastry sheet on a floured surface to 1/8 inch thick. Cut into 3 equal rectangles and prick with a fork.

  2. 2

    Bake the pastry rectangles on a parchment-lined baking sheet until puffed and golden, about 12-15 minutes. Let cool completely.

  3. 3

    In a chilled bowl, whip 1 cup heavy cream with 1 tbsp powdered sugar until stiff peaks form, about 3-4 minutes.

  4. 4

    Slice 1 cup strawberries thinly. Spread half the whipped cream over one pastry rectangle, top with half the strawberries, and repeat with another pastry layer.

  5. 5

    Place the final pastry on top, dust with remaining 1 tbsp powdered sugar, and serve immediately.
