The hit of the Soviet pastry was the Napoleon cake. Today, in the era of mousse cakes, it is sometimes so sweet to feel nostalgic, savoring sweet and delicate dessert from our childhood. It is so easy to prepare a lazy "Napoleon" from ready-made puff pastry that you don't even need any reason for it.

The only thing, when planning to bake a quick "Napoleon" from ready-made puff pastry, one must take into account that the cake, although it is made quickly, takes time to soak. Ideally, a night spent in the refrigerator, so it's best to bake it beforehand.

The proposed recipe is designed for a small cake for a modest company of 4-5 people. If a bigger company gathers to be nostalgic, or you are sure that one modest piece in one hand in one mouth :) the matter will not be limited, the number of products should be doubled.

As in classic version, in this recipe the cakes are sandwiched custard in milk, in my opinion, this is the most successful way to get "the same taste" familiar from childhood.

Puff pastry is the most extensive testing ground for culinary fantasies... Puff pastry apple roses or quick strudel are delicacies that are also easy to implement at first desire.

How to make napoleon from ready-made puff pastry

We take it out of the refrigerator an hour before cooking butter and a bag of puff pastry.

Cake lazy "Napoleon" cream.

The first step is to prepare the custard. This will require half a liter of milk, one large egg, 100 grams of softened butter, 100-130 grams of sugar, 50 grams of flour top grade... The amount of sugar depends on the desired sweetness of the cake.

Add sugar, egg and flour to a glass of cold milk.

Stir with a whisk. The task is to stir so that there are no lumps in the mixture.

Bring the rest of the milk to a boil in a saucepan or ladle with a thick bottom.

In a thin stream, constantly stirring with a whisk, pour the egg-milk-flour mixture into the boiled milk.

Cook on very low heat, stirring constantly, 5 minutes after boiling. We stir, be sure to reach the very bottom with a whisk so that the cream does not burn. Pour in a bag a couple of minutes before cooking vanilla sugar... The cream thickens well during this time. Cover the finished cream with a film and remove to cool.

When the cream has cooled down, put it in a whipping cup, add butter to it. It is necessary to transfer the cream in case it is still slightly burnt at the bottom, so that when whipping, this burnt part does not get into the main creamy mass.

Beat with a mixer until smooth. It will take about 3 minutes.

Lazy "Napoleon" cake layers made of puff pastry.

While the custard is cooling, it's time to bake the cakes. On a baking sheet covered with baking paper or with a Teflon rug, lay out the defrosted puff yeast-free dough... It is best to defrost the dough without taking it out of the bag so that the dough does not wind up. Lightly prick the cakes with a fork so that the dough rises evenly.

We bake the cakes at a temperature of 200 degrees for about half an hour. As soon as the cakes rise well and are slightly browned on top, they are ready. I wanted to brown the top with a grill and then I was distracted :), the cakes were a little over-tanned :), but the cake turned out to be ruddy and beautiful in the end. We take the cakes out of the oven, put them on the wire rack to cool down faster.

Shake off the upper ruddy layer from the cooled cakes into a plate. Wipe the crumbs between your palms to make them smaller. These crumbs will be used to sprinkle the cake.

We divide the cakes themselves into two parts. Two cakes will make 4.

Assembling a lazy "Napoleon" cake from ready-made puff pastry.

We collect the cake, sandwiching each cake with a portion of cream. It is more convenient to immediately spread the cream over all the cakes, except for the top one, in equal portions, so as not to be mistaken with the quantity. But we leave a portion of the cream for the top cake.

But there are enough secrets in cooking that are familiar to experienced chefs. One is that puff pastry cake recipes are not limited to variations of the "namesake of the great emperor." There are also puff logs, almond, sour cream and honey desserts. Beloved by everyone since childhood gives a special charm to the taste boiled condensed milk... Summer cakes with fresh berries: raspberries, strawberries, blackberries, cherries. In autumn, apples, pears and plums are used.

For those. those who are not “friendly” with baked goods have a wonderful way out: semi-finished products. Now, without a long search, you can buy frozen plates in the store, the cake from which can turn out to be just as airy and magically delicious.

Roll out puff pastry 1 cm thick, cut into strips about 10 cm long, 3-4 cm wide. Twist in the middle to make a "bow". Bake, transfer to a plate and sprinkle with powdered sugar.

Probably, you often came across tasty cookies-ears in the store. Making it at home is easy: roll out the dough 0.5 cm thick, sprinkle the cake with sugar and cinnamon and fold first the right edge, then the left roll to the middle of the cake. It turns out a double roll. Cut it into pieces 0.5 cm thick, lay out the "ears" on a baking sheet covered with parchment and bake until tender.

Cut the dough into squares, put a non-liquid filling in the middle of each: pieces of apples, cherries, cottage cheese, or boiled eggs with green onions, or mushrooms fried with onions. Bend the dough squares diagonally to form a triangle, and press along the perimeter with your finger, stepping back 1 cm from the edge: then the filling will not "run away" during baking, but the edges of the "corners" will delaminate beautifully.

Can be made sweet or savory. Having rolled out the dough 0.5 cm thick, cut the cake into strips 15 cm long and 3 cm wide.

Put thin semicircular apple slices sprinkled with sugar and cinnamon on the dough, or boiled sausage- so that the edges protrude slightly above the dough - and fold the dough into a roll. We fasten the roses with toothpicks and bake until golden.

You can sprinkle the strips of dough with grated cheese or poppy seeds, then roll up - you get flaky "snails".

5. Cheese sticks

Cut the cake 1 cm thick into strips, grease with a beaten egg, sprinkle with grated cheese. You can sprinkle with cumin or sesame seeds.

Having rolled out the dough into a 0.5 cm cake layer, cut out the circles with a glass or glass. Putting on the filling, for example, boiled chicken fillet chopped and mixed with fried onions. We pinch the pies, press a little, put on a baking sheet with the seam down and bake until light golden.

To prepare them, you will need special metal baking cones. We wind dough strips 1 cm wide on them, slightly overlapping, and bake. We remove the finished cooled tubes from the cones and fill with cream: creamy, custard or protein.

8. Puffs "Croissants"

Roll out the dough into a circle 0.5 cm thick and cut into triangular segments, as for bagels. Put the non-liquid filling on the wide edge: berries, a piece of jam, nuts with raisins and honey, a piece of chocolate - and roll it from the wide end to the narrow one. Dip the top side of the croissant in a beaten egg, then in sugar. Put on a baking sheet and bake until golden brown.

As an alternative to the fine puffs, you can bake a large, showy puff cake! Roll out the dough 0.5 cm thick, cut into long, narrow strips (5 cm wide, long - the more the better).

Put the filling in the middle of the strips: grated cheese, mushrooms, minced meat. We pinch the edges and put the resulting "tubes" with the filling in a spiral into a mold. You can make a pie with different fillings alternating them. Grease the top of the pie with a beaten egg, sprinkle with sesame seeds or caraway seeds. Bake at 180-200C until golden brown.

10. Napoleon

The most delicious and favorite puff pastry recipe! We roll out the dough into cakes 2-3 mm thick, according to the size of the baking sheet (and so that the thin crust does not break, it is more convenient to roll out immediately on the parchment sprinkled with flour), pierce the cakes in several places with a fork and bake every 15-20 minutes. Ready-made cakes coat with custard, sprinkle with crumbs and leave to soak for 3-4 hours.
