Simple and delicious easy patriotic puff pastries made with whipped cream, raspberries, blueberries f for July 4th celberation.
Happy July 4th to everyone, Hope you are celebrating with great fun and enthusiasm. This year we hope to be to see some of the fireworks display. I say hopefully because it is difficult to find parking and going out with two little hyperactive kiddos is not easy. I had started a tradition of making red white and blue dishes for few years. So decide to make it this time too. However I was busy, but did end up making patriotic puff pastries which is easy to put together less than an hour.
I didn’t make any puff pastry this time; usually I love to make from scratch. So used store bought puff pastry from pepper ridge farm. I made only few. These Patriotic puff pastries are easy to make. With one sheet of puff pastry you will able to make six 4 inch pastries. These patriotic puff pastries are cute and can be used as desserts. If you are planning a July 4th party, make ahead cream cheese frosting and on the day just bake the puff pastries. Arrange it and enjoy.
It is slightly sweetened cream cheese and frosting goes perfectly with slightly tart raspberries and sweet blue berries. I wanted to make stars and stripes little dessert. Finally did after several days of head pinching ideas and searches. I know my kiddos are not so much fan to double layer of puff pastries sweets, so made it single layer, that turned out be great. Once I cut the puff pastries for the flag, with rest I cut out some stars too.
Here come my easy breezy patriotic puff pastries.
Delicious patriotic puff pastries can be great dessert for July 4th party.
