Ingredients

  • 1 large sheet puff pastry 300g
  • egg wash (egg + 1 tablespoon milk)
  • 500   ml heavy cream
  • 80  g icing sugar  + extra for dusting
  • 1/2  tsp vanilla extract
  • 60 g pistachios chopped
  • strawberries sliced

Instructions

Bake the puff pastry

  • Preheat the oven to 200°C or 400°F. Line a baking tray with parchment paper. Set aside.
  • Cut the puff pastry into 12 equal stripes rectangles. Brush each one with the egg wash. Place two pieces of the cut puff pastry on top of each other (you should now have 6 pastries).
  • Bake for around 15-20 minutes. Once they have a nice golden brown colour, take them out and let them cool completely.

Prepare the Whipped Cream Filling

  • Place the heavy cream, icing sugar and vanilla into a bowl. With an electric whisk or in a stand mixer whip the mixture to stiff peaks. Transfer to a piping bag with your favourite nozzle and place in the fridge until ready to use.

Assemble

  • Slice the cooked pastries horizontally. With the piping bag, pipe the whipped cream on the bottom layer. Sprinkle on top the pistachios and add the sliced strawberries.
  • Add the other puff pastry layer and dust generously with icing sugar.
