Description
Elegant Raspberry Mille-Feuille Cookies combine layers of crispy puff pastry, smooth vanilla whipped cream, and juicy fresh raspberries. A Parisian-style dessert that’s both show-stopping and surprisingly easy to make.
Ingredients
- 1 sheet of puff pastry (store-bought or homemade)
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 cup heavy cream, chilled
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 pint fresh raspberries
- Fresh mint leaves (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Roll out puff pastry to 1/8-inch thickness on a lightly floured surface.
3. Cut into 1×2-inch rectangles and prick all over with a fork.
4. Place on baking sheet, sprinkle with granulated sugar, and bake for 10-12 minutes until golden brown.
5. Cool pastry rectangles completely on a wire rack.
6. Whip chilled cream with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until soft peaks form.
7. Layer: one pastry base, dollops of cream, another pastry layer, more cream, and a final pastry top.
8. Top with raspberries and optional mint leaf.
9. Serve immediately or within 2 hours of assembling.
Notes
- Do not assemble more than 2 hours in advance, pastry will lose crispness.
- Use fresh (not frozen) raspberries for best texture and appearance.
- Pastry rectangles can be baked up to 2 days in advance and stored airtight.
- Chill the bowl and beaters before whipping cream for best results.
