: Ingredients

1 sheet puff pastry, thawed
1 cup fresh mixed berries (strawberries, raspberries, blueberries, and blackberries)
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup water
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup white chocolate chips
1/4 cup confectioner’s sugar

: Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Roll out the puff pastry onto a floured surface and cut into 12 equal rectangles.

2. Place the pastry rectangles onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from the oven and allow to cool.

3. While the pastry is cooling, make the berry compote. In a saucepan, combine the mixed berries, sugar, and water. Bring to a boil and reduce the heat to low. Simmer for 15-20 minutes or until the mixture thickens. Remove from the heat and allow to cool.

4. In a separate saucepan, melt the white chocolate chips over low heat. Once melted, remove from heat and stir in the heavy cream until smooth.

5. In a medium bowl, whip the heavy cream and confectioner’s sugar until stiff peaks form.

6. To assemble the napoleons, place one pastry rectangle on a plate. Top with a spoonful of the mixed berry compote and a dollop of whipped cream. Repeat this process, alternating the layers of pastry, compote, and cream until you have three layers.

7. Drizzle the white chocolate sauce over the top of the napoleon.

8. Serve chilled and enjoy!.

: Tips

If you don’t have mixed berries on hand, you can use whichever berries you prefer.
Be sure to keep the pastry rectangles as even as possible for even layering.
Make the berry compote ahead of time and store it in the fridge until you’re ready to use it.
If you don’t have a double boiler to melt the white chocolate chips, you can melt them in a saucepan over low heat. Just be sure to stir constantly to avoid burning the chocolate.

: Conclusion

This mixed berry Napoleon with white chocolate is a dessert that will impress anyone. With its flaky layers, whipped cream, and juicy berries, it’s the perfect way to satisfy your sweet tooth.

Plus, the addition of white chocolate takes it to the next level. Give this recipe a try and you won’t be disappointed!.
