Ingredients

• 2 sheets Puff pastry sheets
• 1 cup Fresh strawberries
• 1 cup Fresh blueberries
• 0.75 cup Lemon curd
• 0.5 cup Heavy whipping cream
• 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar
• 1 Egg
• 1 teaspoon Water
• 0.25 cup Fresh mint leaves

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

Step 2

On a lightly floured surface, unfold the puff pastry sheets and roll them out slightly to even out the thickness. Cut each sheet into 8 equal squares (about 4x4 inches each).

Step 3

In a small bowl, whisk the egg and water together to create an egg wash.

Step 4

Place the pastry squares onto the prepared baking sheets. Lightly brush the edges of each square with the egg wash.

Step 5

Bake the puff pastry squares in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown and puffed. Remove them from the oven and let them cool on a wire rack.

Step 6

While the pastry cools, prepare the lemon cream by whipping the heavy whipping cream and powdered sugar together in a medium bowl until soft peaks form. Fold in the lemon curd gently until the mixture is smooth and creamy.

Step 7

Wash and prepare the berries: hull and slice the strawberries, and leave the blueberries whole.

Step 8

Once the puff pastry squares are completely cooled, carefully split them in half horizontally using a serrated knife.

Step 9

Spread a generous spoonful of lemon cream onto the bottom half of each puff, and top with a mix of fresh strawberries and blueberries.

Step 10

Place the top half of each puff pastry square back on top. Garnish with a small dollop of lemon cream, a berry or two, and a mint leaf.

Step 11

Serve immediately and enjoy this delightful, zesty dessert!
