"How Easy Is That?" Episode Two

Puff pastry, fresh strawberries, confectioner's sugar, cinnamon, with a drizzle of strawberry yogurt...so delicious, I could've eaten at least two! The strawberries soften and give up their juice so the filling is like jam. NOTE TO SELF: prepare the tart on the baking parchment, not on the cutting board. This looked perfectly shaped until I tried to slip it onto the baking parchment already on the cookie sheet and it telescoped up on me. Warm late-summer mornings are anathema to puff pastry already, crimping the edge with a fork only sealed the tart to the surface. But puff pastry's too precious to waste, so I reconstructed it on the parchment and, while the sharp corners were gone, the taste made up for it!
