Ingredients
Units
Scale
- For the Pastry:
- 1 sheet puff pastry, thawed
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- For the Raspberry Filling:
- 1/2 cup raspberry jam (or fresh raspberry puree)
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon powdered sugar (optional, for sweetness)
- For the Glaze:
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1–2 tablespoons milk (adjust for consistency)
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- For Garnish:
- Fresh raspberries (optional)
- Powdered sugar for dusting
Instructions
- Prepare the Puff Pastry:
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Roll out the puff pastry slightly and sprinkle with granulated sugar.
- Cut into small rectangles (about 2×1 inches) and place on a lined baking sheet.
- Cover with parchment paper and place another baking sheet on top (to prevent puffing too much).
- Bake the Pastry:
- Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Remove the top baking sheet and bake for another 3–5 minutes to crisp up.
- Let cool completely.
- Prepare the Raspberry Filling:
- Mix raspberry jam with lemon juice.
- If the jam is too thick, warm it slightly in the microwave and mix well.
- If using fresh raspberries, mash and strain to remove seeds, then mix with powdered sugar.
- Assemble the Mille-Feuille Cookies:
- Spread a thin layer of raspberry filling on half of the puff pastry pieces.
- Top with another piece of pastry to create a sandwich.
- Make the Glaze:
- Whisk powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and milk until smooth.
- Drizzle over the cookies in a zigzag pattern.
- Final Touch:
- Dust with powdered sugar and top with a fresh raspberry if desired.
- Let the glaze set before serving.
Notes
- For an extra crisp pastry, bake for a couple more minutes after assembling.
- Swap raspberry jam for strawberry or mixed berry for a different flavor.
- Store in an airtight container for up to 2 days (best eaten fresh!).
