17.3 oz Pepperidge Farm® Puff Pastry Sheets
Carefully cut out the puff pastry shapes and place them on a large baking sheet that's lined with parchment paper.
Once all puff pastry shapes are cut out, re-roll the dough and cut out more if needed.
Place in oven on center rack. Bake 10-12 mins
Remove from oven. Allow to cool for 1-2 minutes.
Using a bread knife, carefully slice the puff pastry in half.
Real Whipped Cream Pastry Filling
Combine the heavy whipping cream, vanilla extract, and confectioners sugar into a large bowl.
1 pint heavy whipping cream, 1 tsp vanilla extract, 1/4 cup confectionery sugar
Using a mixer, beat on high until peaks form and remain steady.
Add the filling to a pastry bag and pipe into each snowflake. You can also use a spoon if you don't have a pastry bag.
Use chilled puff pastry dough and cut it on a floured surface.
When mixing the whipped cream filling, use a chilled bowl and cold cream.
Keep the whipped cream filling chilled when it's not in use.
