Preparation
Step 1
Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Wash and hull the strawberries. Cut them in half. Lay out your puff pastry on a baking sheet. Cut small squares of pastry with a rolling pin. Cover your dough with parchment paper. Put a weight on top to prevent the dough from puffing up too much. Bake for 10-20 minutes at 400 degrees. When you remove from the oven, Let cool slightly.
Step 2
Assembly: Place a piece of dough, cover with a thin layer of pastry cream, put some strawberries on it with possibly a little more cream and cover with a pastry square. Repeat until you use all the dough.

Chef Tips and Tricks
All you need is 3 main ingredients to make this Chocolate Strawberry Braid for dessert tonight!
Ingredients
- 7-9 medium-sized strawberries
- 1 puff pastry
- 1 chocolate bar
- 1 egg yolk
- Almond slivers
- Powdered sugar
Method
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Cut the strawberries into halves.
- Dust some flour on a flat surface and spread your puff pastry out on top, smoothing it into a rectangle shape if necessary.
- Place the bar of chocolate in the center, then top with a layer of strawberry halves.
- Using a pizza cutter or a knife, slice the edges of the puff pastry into strips that can be wrapped over the chocolate and strawberries. Starting with the flap at the top, fold over each strip in a slightly diagonal direction so that they resemble a braid.
- Brush the braid with a beaten egg yolk so that it covers the entire visible surface.
- Sprinkle almond slivers on top.
- Bake for 20-22 minutes.
- Give the braid a few minutes to cool down, then cover with a dusting of powdered sugar.
- Serve and enjoy!
