How to make napoleon from ready-made puff pastry

Making a Napoleon cake from ready-made puff pastry is as easy as shelling pears and the good news is that you don't have to waste time kneading the dough. I take a puff yeast-free dough, in a pack of 4 sheets, for a cake I need 6 leaves, that is, 1.5 packs. I immediately take it out of the package and leave it to defrost.


Sprinkle flour on the work surface, put the dough on it and roll it out a little. Then I put a plate on it and cut out a circle with a knife.


I put a sheet of parchment on a baking sheet, carefully lay out the cut circles on top. We also put the pieces that remained from the circle to bake, they will still come in handy. Then I make cuts on all the cakes so that they do not swell and bake well.


I put them to bake in the oven, at a temperature of 200 degrees, for 15-20 minutes, depending on your oven and the thickness of the rolled cakes.


I bake all 6 cakes in the same way. It is not necessary to make the cake round, you can make it rectangular, it will be larger and you do not have to cut so much.


I break the cuts that have been baked into small pieces or chop them with a blender, which will only speed up the process.


Now I'm making a custard for the cake. It is quite simple to prepare. I first take out the butter from the refrigerator so that it melts. Pour sugar, flour into a saucepan with a thick bottom and drive in an egg.


I mix the added ingredients well to get a homogeneous mixture.


Then I start pouring in milk a little bit, stirring all the time.


When the mass is mixed, I put it on medium heat.


As soon as the cream boils, remove it from the heat and leave it to cool. If you like a very well-soaked cake, then feel free to make a double portion of the cream.


The longer the cream cools, the thicker it becomes. To make it cool faster, I put it in cold water. In principle, you can leave the cream like this and not add anything else to it, but since I want to show you a classic recipe, I need to finish it a little more.


In a bowl with already melted butter, add a couple of tablespoons of the cooled cream and mix.


Thus, I got a delicious custard for napoleon from ready-made puff pastry. If you take not butter, but a vegetable-butter mixture, you will get a cream with the same fine flakes as mine. This does not affect the taste in any way, but the view is certainly not ideal for him.


After that, I proceed to the formation of the dessert. I put the bottom cake on a tray or dish, coat it with cream, then leather again, and so on until the end.


The puff pastry napoleon with custard is almost done. Now I take the shredded scraps and sprinkle them on the top and sides of the cake.


Finally, I put the puff pastry napoleon in the refrigerator to soak. This will take 12 hours or more. From such a dough you can make, the preparation of which will take you a minimum of time. Bon Appetit!

There are times when you want to please guests or are close to something extraordinary, but there is no time or desire to spend a long time in the kitchen. I'm just one of those people :) Therefore, such a wonderful cake is my favorite. It is quick and easy to prepare, but it looks unusual and delicious!

I call it "Tasty Ruins")

First, defrost the dough. Sprinkle the baking paper with flour and the defrosted dough, WITHOUT ROLLING OUT, put it on a baking sheet with paper. We send to bake in the oven for 30 minutes, temperature 180-200 degrees

This is what we should get. Let the cakes cool.

Cream preparation:

We measure all the ingredients for the cream and put them in a deep bowl, in which it will be convenient to stir with a mixer.

Knead the cream until smooth


By this time, our biscuits have already cooled down. We cut it into rugs, and each halves still in half. The crumb that appears when sprinkling the top layer is also useful to us !!!

We take a flat and large plate. Put the strongest and thickest piece of dough in the first layer.

Liberally coat it with cream.
And so on we do with all the layers of dough, smearing them with cream.

We have got such a "turret". The top layer is a cream, we coat the top well so that the dough is not visible.

Chop finely sprinkled dough remnants with our hands and sprinkle them on the top of the cake


Rub the milk chocolate on a fine grater and sprinkle on the cake


We put the cake in the refrigerator for 2-3 hours so that the biscuits are soaked and the cream hardened a little


It turned out to be a great dessert for a Sunday family tea party!
Can also be prepared for a holiday if few guests are expected.

First, I want to explain why "Cake-Pie". Firstly, it is done in a pan, a very quick, "lazy" version, so I classified it, nevertheless, with pies. Well, but in appearance and delicate, moderately sweet taste, after all, a cake. All the same, choux pastry and another option for making a quick and tasty dish from it !!! Why "Fenichka"?
