Description
A light and zesty no-bake dessert that layers whipped lemonade cream between flaky puff pastry—perfect for summer gatherings or a refreshing treat any time of year.
Ingredients
1 sheet puff pastry (thawed)
1 cup heavy whipping cream
1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk
1/4 cup frozen lemonade concentrate (thawed)
1 tablespoon lemon zest
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Powdered sugar for dusting
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Roll out puff pastry on parchment-lined baking sheet, prick with a fork, and bake for 12–15 minutes or until golden. Let cool.
2. In a bowl, whip the heavy cream to soft peaks. Fold in condensed milk, lemonade concentrate, lemon zest, and vanilla. Whip until fluffy and thick.
3. Slice baked puff pastry horizontally to create two layers. Spread the cream mixture on the bottom layer, then top with the second layer.
4. Chill in the fridge for at least 2 hours.
5. Dust with powdered sugar and slice before serving.
Notes
Use all-butter puff pastry for the flakiest result.
Chill longer for a firmer texture when slicing.
Add extra zest for more citrus intensity.
