A delightful treat featuring layers of flaky puff pastry filled with a rich cream cheese mixture and topped with fresh strawberries and a homemade strawberry compote.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 sheet store-bought puff pastry
  • 1 cup fresh strawberries, sliced
  • 60 ml lemon juice
  • 50 g granulated sugar
  • 225 g cream cheese, softened
  • 67 g granulated sugar
  • 120 ml heavy cream
  • 10 ml vanilla extract
  • 1.25–2.5 ml almond extract
  • Powdered sugar, for dusting
  • Fresh strawberries, sliced

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 200°C. Line a baking tray with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
  2. Cut one sheet of puff pastry into six equal rectangles. Arrange pieces on the prepared tray and bake for 10–15 minutes, or until golden and puffed.
  3. Place 1 cup of sliced strawberries in a medium saucepan. Add sugar and lemon juice. Cook over medium heat, gently mashing berries with a fork or potato masher. Simmer on low for 15–20 minutes, stirring frequently, until thickened.
  4. In a bowl, combine softened cream cheese and sugar. Mix with an electric mixer until smooth, about 1–2 minutes. Add heavy cream and beat until lightly aerated, 1–2 minutes. Blend in vanilla and almond extracts for another minute.
  5. Allow baked pastry to cool. Halve each pastry horizontally. Spread several tablespoons of cream cheese filling on the bottom half. Top with 4–6 slices of fresh strawberry, then spoon 1–2 tablespoons of compote over berries. Cover with the top pastry half.
  6. Dust each assembled puff with powdered sugar before serving.
