SAMPLE RECIPE Strawberry Napoleons
8 sheets PHYLLO DOUGH, thawed according to pkg. directions 3 cups PASTRY CREAM, at room temperature 3 cups sliced STRAWBERRIES POWDERED SUGAR, for dusting Preheat oven to 350°. Spray a baking sheet with nonstick vegetable spray. Spray a sheet of the phyllo dough with nonstick spray, fold in half and spray again, then fold once more and spray again. Cut the folded dough in quarters to make four even rectangles. Cut each rectangle in half. Repeat the process with the remaining sheets of phyllo. Place the rectangles on the baking sheet and bake until lightly browned, 3 to 4 minutes. Watch carefully, as they burn easily. For each napoleon, spread three of the rectangles with 1 tablespoon of Pastry Cream, then 1 tablespoon of the berries. Stack the three layers, then top with the remaining rectangle. Lightly dust with powdered sugar. Repeat until all napoleons have been assembled. Makes 16 napoleons. Pastry Cream: 3 cups LOW FAT MILK 2/3 cup SUGAR 2 WHOLE EGGS & 1 EGG YOLK 4 Tbsp.
