Eat Like a Rabbit

This was a very simple dessert made at peak season for fresh peaches. I always try to make such things when the oven is always hot from another baking experience. My guests had no complaints about the peaches being unsweetened. The ice cream made up for it. If I had had more time, I think I would have liked to serve the dish with mint ice cream (the mint chocolate chip ice cream recipe without the chocolate chips).

Recipe for Peach Strudel

Unwrap Pepperidge Farms Puff Pastry Sheets to defrost, but not for too long, and divide on folds into three long sheets. Preheat oven as package suggests. Cut each sheet in half along the shorter of the two sides. Meanwhile, thinly slice fresh peaches.

Take each half and put a spoonful of peaches just off center of the pastry sheet and fold the left over side over the peaches. Press down the edges with a fork and, if desired, roll edges up for sealing. Place each strudel on an ungreased pan or on a Silpat baking sheet. Cook until golden brown, about seven minutes. Serve warm with a side of ice cream.
