4.8 from 107 reviews

These Raspberry Mille-Feuille Cookies are delicate, flaky pastries layered with sweet and tangy raspberry jam, finished with a dusting of powdered sugar. Perfect for an elegant dessert or a special tea-time treat, they combine the classic French mille-feuille technique in a bite-sized cookie form.

Ingredients

Scale

Pastry

  • 1 sheet puff pastry (thawed if frozen)

Filling

  • 1/2 cup raspberry jam

Topping

  • Powdered sugar, for dusting

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Puff Pastry: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Roll out the thawed puff pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface to smooth out creases and ensure even thickness.
  2. Cut and Bake Pastry Layers: Cut the puff pastry into uniform rectangles or squares, typically about 2×3 inches. Place the pieces on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, spacing them a little apart. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the pastry is puffed up and golden brown. Remove from the oven and let cool completely.
  3. Assemble the Cookies: Once cooled, spread a thin, even layer of raspberry jam on the bottom side of half of the pastry pieces. Top each with a matching piece to create a sandwich.
  4. Finish with Powdered Sugar: Lightly dust the tops of the assembled cookies with powdered sugar for a classic, elegant finish.
  5. Serve and Enjoy: Serve the Raspberry Mille-Feuille Cookies on a platter immediately, or refrigerate them for up to two days to maintain freshness. Bring to room temperature before serving for best flavor and texture.

Notes

  • Make sure the puff pastry is well chilled before baking to achieve a flaky texture.
  • Raspberry jam can be substituted with other fruit preserves according to preference.
  • Handle baked pastry gently to avoid cracking or breaking layers.
  • These cookies are best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for 1-2 days.
