How to cook deliciously - Strawberry Shortcake Puffs
1. Stage
On a lightly floured surface, roll the puff pastry sheet into a 10-inch square and cut it into 12 rectangles (approximately 3x2-1/2 inches). Place on ungreased baking sheets and bake at 400°F until golden brown, about 12 to 15 minutes. Cool the pastries completely on wire racks. Editor's Tip: Ensure the puff pastry is fully thawed before using to prevent cracking when unfolding.
2. Stage
While the pastry bakes, toss the strawberries with 1/4 cup sugar in a mixing bowl and let it stand at room temperature for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. In another bowl, beat the heavy cream until it begins to thicken. Add vanilla and sugar and beat until stiff peaks form. Editor's Tip: Chill your mixing bowl and beaters in the refrigerator for 15 minutes before whipping the cream for the best results.
3. Stage
To serve, split the puff pastries horizontally in half. Top the bottom halves with 2 tablespoons of whipped cream and 1 tablespoon of strawberries. Replace the top halves and dollop the remaining whipped cream and strawberries over them.
