Ingrédients

1 pound puff pastry, thawed

1/2 cup heavy cream

1/2 cup whole milk

3 large egg yolks

1/4 cup granulated sugar

1 tablespoon cornstarch

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)

2 tablespoons honey

1 tablespoon lemon juice

1/4 cup powdered sugar for dusting

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Roll out the puff pastry on a lightly floured surface to about 1/8 inch thick. Cut into rectangles of about 4x6 inches.
Place the pastry rectangles on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Prick the surfaces with a fork to prevent puffing and bake for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown. Let cool on a wire rack.
In a saucepan, combine heavy cream and milk. Heat until just boiling, then remove from heat.
In a bowl, whisk together egg yolks, granulated sugar, and cornstarch until pale and thick. Slowly pour the hot cream mixture into the yolk mixture while whisking continuously.
Return the mixture to the saucepan and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the pastry cream thickens. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract. Let cool completely.
In a separate saucepan, combine mixed berries, honey, and lemon juice. Cook over medium heat until the berries break down and the mixture thickens into a compote. Set aside to cool.
To assemble, spread a layer of pastry cream on one rectangle of puff pastry, top with another rectangle, and repeat. Add a layer of berry compote between the layers for added flavor.
Dust the top layer with powdered sugar before serving.
