Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 11 minutes
Total Time 21 minutes

Sweet stacks of puff pastry, cheesecake, and strawberries are completed with some delicious sliced almonds! You'll want to make these Strawberry Cheesecake Napoleons soon!

Ingredients

  • ½ box (1 sheet) puff pastry, thawed
  • 1 package (8 ounce) cream cheese, softened
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 3 Tablespoons heavy whipping cream
  • 8 ounce strawberries, halved (or other berries)
  • ½ cup sliced almonds
  • ¼ cup milk chocolate, melted
  • powdered sugar, optional

Instructions

  1. Thaw puff pastry according to package directions. When ready to use, unfold and cut along seams, creating 3 long strips. Cut each strip in half, creating 6 rectangles.
  2. Place on a baking sheet and bake in a 400 degree oven for 11-15 minutes, until lightly browned. Remove and cool completely. Slice in half lengthwise through center. Set aside.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, beat cream cheese, sugar and heavy cream for 5 minutes, until fluffy.
  4. Fill bottom of each "sandwich" with cheesecake filling. Top with strawberries. Place top of puff pastry over strawberries and sprinkle (generously) with powdered sugar. Drizzle melted chocolate over each Napoleon and immediately sprinkle with Fisher's Sliced Almonds. Serve immediately or refrigerate.

Notes

  • Bake the pastry first: Slice the thawed puff pastry dough into 6 even rectangles. Bake until puffy and lightly browned.
  • Assembling: Slice the cooled pastry in half like a sandwich roll. Spoon filling onto one half, then add strawberries and the second half of the pastry on top.
  • Garnishing: Use a sifter to sprinkle powdered sugar over the Napoleons. Arrange sliced almonds on top and finish with a drizzle of melted chocolate!
