Strawberry Mille Feuille / 苺のミルフィーユ
Ingredients
- 1 sheet puff pastry frozen or you can make it from scratch
- 1 egg beaten
- strawberries
- powdered sugar for dusting
- mint for topping
Whipped Cream
- 2 cups heavy whipping cream
- 3 tbsp sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Take the sheet of puff pastry and cut it into 6 smaller rectangles (if your puff pastry is thick, roll it out so it's quite thin as it will puff up).
- Place the puff pastry onto a cookie or baking sheet and brush the tops with egg wash.
- In a 400 degree oven, bake the puff pastry for 15-20 minutes, until puffy and golden on top.
- While the puff pastry is cooking, prepare the whipped cream. Beat heavy cream, sugar, and vanilla extract until whipped.
- Prepare the strawberries by cutting some into halves. Keep some whole if you would like to use them for toppings.
- Once the puff pastry is done cooking, remove from the oven and cool for 10 minutes.
- Then take one puff pastry and put down or pipe a layer of whipped cream. Then add a layer of cut strawberries, and top with another puff pastry. Repeat until you use up all the puff pastry.
- Dust the top with some powdered sugar and decorate with whipped cream, strawberry, and mint. Serve and enjoy immediately.
