Author Catherine's Plates

Ingredients

  • 1 sheet Pepperidge Farm Puff Pastry, thawed
  • 1 (8oz) box cream cheese, room temperature
  • 1/2 cup granulated white sugar
  • 2 TBS heavy whipping cream
  • 1 jar strawberry preserves or jam
  • 1 lb fresh strawberries, sliced
  • powdered sugar, optional as a garnish

Instructions

  • On a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, unfold thawed pastry sheet. Cut the pastry sheet into 3 sections down the fold lines. Cut each strip in half making 6 rectangles.
  • Bake in a preheated oven at 400 degrees for 12-15 minutes until pastries are golden brown. Remove from oven and place pastries on cooling rack to cool completely.
  • In a medium bowl using an electric hand mixer, blend together cream cheese, granulated sugar and heavy cream for about 3 minutes until smooth.
  • Cut the pastry puffs into 2 layers.
  • Evenly divide the cheesecake filling between the 6 bottom layers and smooth out.
  • Layer sliced strawberries on top of the cheesecake filling.
  • In a small bowl place the preserves or jam and whisk or stir with a fork to make a spreadable jam. Spoon the jam onto the top portion of the puffs and spread evenly. Place top layer of puff jam side down on top of the sliced strawberries.
  • Dust with powdered sugar, if desired.
