Homemade Mascarpone Whipped Cream Strawberry Shell an easy recipe
If there is one thing I detest, it is pastry cream. The texture, the mouthfeel, no, I can't appreciate it and have for as long as I can remember. So I always leave a strawberry shell cake at the bakery alone. They always fill them with it, and to make matters worse, they spread a kind of gelatinous layer on the strawberries to make them shine. That doesn't make it any better for me either... Time for a strawberry shell recipe that doesn't contain these components! Oh, and does that make it less tasty? No, in fact, I think my version is much tastier than the bakery version! Pay tribute to this strawberry tart with this mascarpone whipped cream strawberry shell.
Mascarpone is originally from Italy and you can use it for all kinds of dishes. You make it by mixing cream with lemon juice, which gives it a smooth, creamy taste and texture. Mascarpone is a popular ingredient in many sweet dishes, such as the famous tiramisu, or you can use it as a base for sauces and glazes that you pour over cakes or pastries. You can also use it as an alternative to butter or cream in some recipes to make them richer and more creamy. You can find mascarpone in stores that specialize in cheese or in the cheese section of most supermarkets.

You make this strawberry shell recipe very easily! You just need some time between baking, cooling, melting chocolate and letting it set again. So it is ideal to do on the weekend. I love strawberries, so I ate this strawberry pie in no time. The pastries are nice and handy, because I use ring cutters of about 10 cm in diameter.
Tips & variations:
- Use raspberries or blueberries as an alternative to strawberries.
- Make the cake lactose-free by using vegetable whipped cream.
- Add chopped pistachios for extra crunch.

Nice and easy: click on the logo of your favorite supermarket to add the ingredients.
And this is how you make it:
- Preheat your oven to 180 degrees.
- Defrost your sheets of puff pastry and cut circles out of the dough with the cutting ring.
- Butter the bottom of your muffin tin. (You put the baking tin upside down, we bake on the outside of the tin! ) Rub the outside of the bowls well with butter, then "flour" the bowls and pat the tin above your sink.
- Rub the puff pastry circles with a little bit of water and sprinkle generously with granulated sugar. Place these circles on the greased balls of your muffin tin and press the edges well to form a kind of hat. Bake the shells until nice and golden brown in 20 to 22 minutes.
- Now remove the shells from the tin and let them cool on a rack.
- Beat the whipped cream with the mascarpone with 1 bag of klopfix and two tablespoons of granulated sugar into a thick whipped cream and put it in a piping bag with a serrated mouth. Place in the refrigerator until use.
- Heat a pan with water and put a bowl in it, melt the chocolate drops in a bain Marie in this bowl. Immediately coat the insides of the shells with the melted chocolate and leave them on the rack until the chocolate has hardened.
- Then fill the shells with some whipped cream mix and put some pieces of strawberry on top, pipe a nice swirl of whipped cream on top and enjoy!
