    List of Ingredients




    1 package (17 1/4 ounces) frozen puff pastry, thawed
    3 cups cold milk
    1 package (5.1 ounces) instant vanilla
    pudding mix
    2 cups whipping cream
    1 teaspoon vanilla extract, divided
    1 cup confectioners� sugar
    1 tablespoon water
    1/4 teaspoon almond extract
    1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips
    1 teaspoon shortening

    Recipe



    On a lightly floured surface, roll each puff pastry sheet into a 12-inch square. Using an 11-inch heart pattern, cut each pastry into a heart shape. Place on greased baking sheets. Bake at 400 degrees for 12�15 minutes or until golden brown. Remove to wire racks to cool.

    Meanwhile, combine milk and pudding mix until thickened. In a mixing bowl, beat cream and 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla until stiff peaks form. Carefully fold into pudding. Split puff pastry hearts in half. Place one layer on a serving plate. Top with a third of the pudding mixture. Repeat twice. Top with remaining pastry.

    In a bowl, combine confectioners� sugar, water, almond extract and the remaining vanilla until smooth. Spread over top.

    Melt chocolate chips and shortening; pipe in diagonal lines in one direction over frosting. Beginning 1 inch from side of heart, use a sharp knife to draw right angles across the piped lines. Refrigerate until set.

    Yield: 10�12 servings.
