Cream Horns also are known as “Trobochki” are spiral puff pastry desserts that, supposedly resemble horns. These puff pastry cream horns have a dulce de leche cream that you can use for other desserts too!
One sheet of puff pastry can make 20 cream horns if using a 5-inch cream horn mold. If you prefer longer cream horns look for a longer mold like this one. The smaller the mold the more “horns” you can make from one sheet of puff pastry because you would need to cut your dough in more sections whereas a bigger mold can hold a longer strip of dough. If you want to own cream horn molds, do try to invest in at least 20 molds otherwise you may need to wait for your batch to bake-up before using up the rest of your dough which can be time and energy-consuming. I bought 4 sets 6 fox run (5-inch molds) that I bought from eBay for a good deal so do some research before investing in a collection. These are fairly easy to make and you can even make your own molds right from home!
INGREDIENTS for Cream Horns Recipe :
- 1 sheet of puff pastry
- 1 (8oz) pkg Cool Whip, thawed from the fridge*
- 1/2 cup dulce de leche
- 2 TBSP cream cheese, soft
DIRECTIONS to make Cream Horns Recipe :
1. Thaw one sheet of puff pastry.
2. Lightly roll out the dough to an 18-inch x 10-inch rectangle.
3. Cut 10 strips across, about 1-inch thick. Then cut from the middle down to get 20 pieces all together.
4. Spray your tins with non-stick cooking spray and wrap each strip around the mold overlapping the dough to prevent any gaps. Pinch the ending piece to the dough and bake in a preheated 400° oven for 15-20 minutes or until golden. Remove horns promptly from the molds after baking to prevent any sticking. Cool.
5. TO MAKE CREAM: Beat cream cheese and the dulce de leche just until combined (don’t overbeat.) Mix in the cool whip and beat until well combined.
6. Pipe cream into the horns and serve.
* For best results thaw cool whip properly by letting it thaw in the refrigerator.
