Ingredients

1 ⅓ cups Frozen Mixed Berries (if fresh berries are in season then use those)
2 sheets Frozen Puff Pastry, partially thawed
½ cup Cream
1 tablespoon Maple Syrup
½ teaspoon Pure Vanilla Essence
½ cup Mascarpone
1 tablespoon Pistachios, crushed for serving
1 tablespoon Coconut, dessicated for serving

Instructions

Preheat oven to 425F
Lay frozen berries on a tray covered with paper towels and set aside to thaw slightly
Line another tray with baking paper. Cut 8 rounds from 2 sheets of Puff Pastry using a 10cm fluted biscuit cutter
Place rounds on prepared tray and prick all over with a fork. Pop another layer of baking paper on top, followed by another baking tray (to keep the pastry flat)
Pop in the oven and bake for 6 minutes when the pastry should be golden. Remove from oven and set aside to cool
Meanwhile, whip the cream with the maple syrup and vanilla essence. Once thickened, gently fold in the mascarpone
To serve, place a pastry round on a plate, place a dollop of the cream mixture on top followed by some berries and a second pastry round. Sprinkle some coconut and pistachios on top and serve
