Step-by-step directions

1 The Feuillants:
Take out your baking sheet and preheat the oven to 220°C (430°F) (gas mark 7).

2 In a bowl, pour the flour mixed with the almonds, add the eggs beaten like an omelette, then the sugar and finally the melted butter.

3 Using a brush or spoon, make small portions of mixture on your baking sheet (be careful as it spreads), you should be able to make about twenty.

4 Place in the middle of the oven and as soon as the discs start to color, remove them, loosen them with a spatula and put another baking sheet to cook (quick cooking). Let cool in the air.

5 Cut your strawberries in half or quarters depending on their size and reserve in the refrigerator.
The Whipped Cream:

6 Place a bowl and your liquid cream in the freezer for 5 minutes, then take it out and whip your cream with a whisk. When it becomes firm, add the sugar and vanilla sugar, then reserve in the cold.
