Ingredients

1 package of puff pastry (approx. 275 g)
1 package of long ladyfingers (approx. 150 g)
200 ml whipping cream
1 packet of whipped cream stabilizer
1 tablespoon powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla sugar

optional: chocolate glaze, fondant, or caramel

Preparation procedure

Preparing the dough: Roll out the puff pastry into a thinner sheet and place it on a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Prick it several times with a fork so it doesn't puff up while baking.
Baking the pastry: Bake in a preheated oven at 200 °C for approximately 15 minutes, until the pastry is golden and crisp. Then let it cool.
Layering the dessert: On the cooled pastry arrange the long ladyfingers in a single layer. Between them you can add a layer of whipped cream or cream for a milder flavor.
Finishing: Spread whipped cream made with stabilizer, sugar, and vanilla sugar on top. Decorate with fresh fruit or pour chocolate glaze over it.
Serving: Let the dessert chill in the refrigerator for at least an hour so the flavors can meld. Then cut into portions and serve.
