Ultimate Strawberry Shortcake

Kim here...My husband's favorite dessert is strawberries and ice cream. Well, because I just can't serve ice cream in a bowl with some chopped up strawberries and always have to jazz it up, here is one of the versions of this dessert I have come up with. It's pretty tasty, not to mention very easy. This would make a great dessert to have when guests are over because it doesn't take but a minute to prepare and the visual on it is spectacular. Looks like it took you two days, but in reality just a few minutes. Enjoy!

Ultimate Strawberry Shortcake

1 package of puff pastry shells
Vanilla ice cream
Strawberries, chopped
Chocolate Syrup
Powdered Sugar for dusting

1. Bake the puff pastry according to directions. After baked, split in half.
2. On one round of the puff pastry, spoon on a dollop of ice cream. Put the other half of the round on top of the ice cream. Now it looks a little like a ice cream sandwich.
3. Take your strawberries and put some on top of the puff pastry and around the sides of it.
4. Take your chocolate syrup and go around the edge of the plate in a swirly design, or however you like to do it. This is for presentation and so you can dip your bite into the chocolate as you go.
5. Lastly, take your powdered sugar that is in a sifter type device and dust the dessert.
