This was an easy dessert that is best put together immediately before serving. Also, to conserve energy, I only make it when the oven has already been used for another part of the meal or for a baking project.

Recipe for Peach Shortcake

• Defrost Pepperide Farm Puff Pastry Sheets. (One sheet serves two people).
• Bake on cookie sheet according to package directions.
• Cut each sheet into four equal pieces.
• Slice fresh peaches rather thinly.
• Layer one piece of the pastry sheet with three or four slices of peaches so as not to make it too tall.
• Top with a scoop of ice cream using a spoon so the scoop is flatter.
• Layer another piece of pastry and more peaches.
• If the dessert is short enough, you can top with another scoop of ice cream.
• Garnish with any crumbles of the pastry left on the baking sheet.
