Ingredients for Bliss

Puff Pastry Sheet:
  • A golden canvas that encases the luscious strawberry filling, puff pastry adds a flaky and crispy texture to each bite.
Fresh Strawberries:
  • Diced to perfection, strawberries bring a burst of natural sweetness and a hint of tartness to the filling.
Sugar and Cornstarch:
  • The perfect duo to enhance the sweetness and thicken the strawberry filling, creating a juicy and irresistible center.
Vanilla Extract:
  • Elevating the overall flavor profile, vanilla extract adds a warm and comforting note to the strawberry filling.
Cream Cheese Frosting:
  • A dreamy topping crafted from softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and a touch of milk for a velvety finish.

Culinary Symphony Unleashed

  • Preheating the Stage: Set the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper, creating the perfect stage for your strudels.
  • Strawberry Magic: Mix diced strawberries, sugar, cornstarch, and vanilla extract in a bowl, creating a tantalizing filling.
  • Puff Pastry Choreography: Roll out thawed puff pastry on a floured surface and cut it into rectangles. Spoon strawberry filling onto one half and fold the pastry over, crimping the edges with a fork.
  • Baking Ballet: Place your beautifully crafted strudels on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 15-20 minutes, allowing them to reach a golden and crispy perfection.
  • Creamy Encore: While the strudels are baking, whip up the cream cheese frosting in a small bowl. Beat together cream cheese, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and milk until smooth and creamy.
  • Grand Finale: Once the strudels emerge from the oven, let them cool slightly before drizzling the luscious cream cheese frosting over the top.
