Strawberry and Cream Napoleon Recipe
- 1 Sheet of Puff Pastry
- 1 Egg
- 2 T of Brown Sugar combined with 2 T of granulated sugar
- 2 Cups of Heavy Whipping Cream
- 3/4 Cup of Powdered Sugar
- 1 T of vanilla extract
To Prepare and Cook the Puff Pastry
Sprinkle 2 Tablespoons of the Sugar Combination over the puff pastry sheet and go over it with a rolling pin, spreading the sugar out evenly.
Brush on some of the egg so that the puff pastry comes out of the oven with a nice golden color.
Put the puff pastry in a baking dish covered with wax paper and bake for 20 minutes at 350 degrees.
Remove from the oven and let cool before cutting off around the edges so you can see all of the layers.
Cut into uniform square pieces and set aside.
For the Whipped Cream
Put your mixers and mixing bowl in the refrigerator for at least 20 minutes until cool.
Add the whipping cream and beat for about 5 minutes until peaks begin to form.
Add the powdered sugar and vanilla and continue beating until firm.
Set aside
To form the Strawberry and Cream Napoleons
Put a piece of the puff pastry on a plate.
Using a pastry bag, add a layer of whipped cream to the puff pastry.
Add a layer of fresh strawberries, glazed in sugar.
Repeat the process one (or more) more times before ending with a final layer of puff pastry.
Add a dusting off powdered sugar to the top and decorate with fresh strawberries.
Serve immediately
