Ingredients

• 1 package frozen puff pastry sheets
• 2 cups fresh strawberries
• 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
• 1 cup heavy whipping cream
• 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour (for dusting)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Thaw the puff pastry sheets according to the package instructions. Lightly dust a surface with flour and gently roll out the pastry sheets to even out any creases.

Step 3

Cut the puff pastry into rectangles or squares, approximately 3x4 inches in size. Place the pieces onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between them.

Step 4

Prick the puff pastry pieces all over with a fork to prevent excessive puffing. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown and flaky. Let cool completely.

Step 5

While the pastry cools, wash and hull the strawberries, then slice them into thin pieces. Toss the sliced strawberries with granulated sugar in a bowl and set aside.

Step 6

In a chilled bowl, whip the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form. Refrigerate until ready to use.

Step 7

To assemble, take one piece of puff pastry and spread a layer of whipped cream over it. Layer a few strawberry slices on top of the cream.

Step 8

Add another layer of puff pastry on top of the strawberries, followed by whipped cream and more strawberries. Top with a final piece of puff pastry.

Step 9

Dust the assembled Napoleons with a sprinkle of powdered sugar for a finishing touch.

Step 10

Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 2 hours before serving.
