Recipe

Ingredients

  • 1/2 of a 17.3-ounce package Puff Pastry Sheets (1 sheet), thawed
  • 1/2 cup hazelnut chocolate spread
  • 12 strawberries, sliced
  • 1/2 cup thawed whipped topping

Directions

  1. Heat the waffle maker.

  2. Unfold the pastry sheet on a work surface.  Trim the pastry sheet to fit the waffle maker, if needed.  Place the pastry sheet into the waffle maker and close the lid.  Cook for 8 minutes or until steaming stops and the waffle is golden brown and crisp.

  3. Cut the waffle in quarters.  Spread each quarter with 2 tablespoons hazelnut chocolate spread.  Top with the strawberries and whipped topping.

  4. Alternate Preparation: For waffle sticks, cut the pastry sheet into 6 (about 1 1/2-inches wide) strips.  Place into waffle maker and cook as directed above.

  5. Flavor Variation: You can also try peanut butter topped with sliced banana, honey and chopped pecans or lemon curd topped with marshmallow cream and broiled until the marshmallow cream is lightly browned.
