Cookies puff pastry filled with fresh strawberries

Cookies puff pastry filled with fresh strawberries 

These delicious cookies puff pastry filled with fresh strawberries are very simple to make, especially recommended  in spring, when fresh strawberries are available; great as a dessert, it's also delicious for breakfast or as a snack, and much loved by the youngest. 

Ingredients for four biscuits are: 
- 2 packages of puff pastry 
- 2 baskets of strawberries (about 500 grams) 
- 400 grams of fresh cow's milk ricotta is not (or well drained) 
- 5 tablespoons strawberry jam (preferably homemade) 
- 3 tablespoons granulated sugar 
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar 
- Lemon juice, cinnamon powder to taste 

After spreading the dough on the work surface, with a special cutter,  cut six baskets in the shape of flower to bake in a preheated oven at two hundred degrees; prick from the bottom with a fork and cook for a quarter of an hour, until the dough will appear lightly browned. Once it's cooked, leave to cool. In the meantime, clean, dry and slice the strawberries, season with sugar and lemon juice. Prepare a creamy sauce, stirring with a whisk of ricotta, jam and icing sugar, then fill each basket with a tablespoon of cream and a handful of strawberries into chunks.
