Strawberry Napoleons

Ingredients

• 1 (3.5 ounce) package instant vanilla pudding and pie filling
• 1 cup cold 2 milk
• 1 1/2 cups non-dairy whipped topping, thawed
• 1/2 (17.25 ounce) package frozen puff pastry, thawed
• 1 pint fresh strawberries, thinly sliced
• 1/4 cup confectioners’ sugar

Directions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Combine pudding mix and cold milk; fold in whipped topping. Refrigerate until ready to use.

Unfold pastry on a cool, lightly floured surface. Cut into 3 strips along fold marks, then cut each strip into four equal pieces. Place 2 inches apart on a baking sheet.

Bake for 15 minutes in the preheated oven, or until golden brown. Remove from baking sheet, and cool.

Split pastries into 2 layers, setting the 8 best looking tops aside. Spread 8 bottom layers with dollops of the pudding mixture. Top each with a layer of strawberries, a small amount of pudding, and another pastry layer. (a small amount of the pudding mix on top of the berries will help keep the layers together. ) Spread with remaining pudding mixture and strawberries, and top with remaining pastry layers (the best looking ones). Sprinkle with confectioner's sugar.
