How to Make Stars And Stripes Forever Dessert

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the thawed puff pastry to 1/8 inch thickness.
  3. Using floured star-shaped cookie cutters, cut out stars of various sizes.
  4. Arrange stars 1 inch apart on the prepared baking sheets.
  5. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until golden brown.
  6. Remove from oven and let cool slightly on wire racks.
  7. While stars cool, gently toss the berries with 1/4 cup of the granulated sugar in a large bowl. Set aside.
  8. In a chilled mixing bowl, beat the heavy cream with an electric mixer until soft peaks form.
  9. Gradually add the remaining 1/4 cup sugar and continue beating until stiff peaks form.
  10. In a small serving bowl, gently fold the whipped cream into the sour cream.
  11. Lightly brush the cooled pastry stars with water and sprinkle generously with granulated sugar.
  12. To assemble, place the sour cream and whipped cream mixture in the center of a serving platter.
  13. Spoon the berry mixture around the creamy dip.
  14. Arrange the sugared pastry stars decoratively on top of the berries and cream.
  15. Serve immediately and enjoy!
