EASY PUFF PASTRY CREAM HORNS (LADY LOCKS) RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
• Take out a sheet of puff pastry to let it thaw enough that you can unfold it without it breaking apart. Once thawed, cut the pastry sheet into 3/4″ inch equal strips. Set aside.
• Spray your store-bought metal form or homemade tinfoil cones with non-stick spray.
• Wrap a strip of pastry around each cone, starting at the pointed end and making sure to overlap layers. After you've reached the end of the pastry, gentle press the end to the top layer of pastry to prevent it from popping off while baking.
• Place the assembled cones onto a greased sheet. Bake them for about 18 minutes or until light golden brown, then remove from the oven.
• Gently remove each horn from the mold hot to prevent from horn sticking to the mold. Use a towel to hold the end of mold so you don't burn your hands. Let the horns cool completely before filling with cream.
• While the cones are baking or cooling, prepare the buttercream filling. In a large bowl, beat the softened butter and shortening over medium speed with an electric mixer until soft and creamy.
• Continue to beat over medium speed as you gradually add the powdered sugar. Stop the mixer and scrape down the sides of the bowl with a spatula as needed to fully incorporate all of the sugar.
• Once butter and sugar have come together, add the vanilla. Beat in the heavy cream or milk 1 tablespoon at a time until the desired consistency is reached. If your frosting is too sweet, add a pinch of salt and mix until it's completely dissolved.
• Fill the horns with cream. To fill, use a decorating bag with Wilton 32 tip (for an open star pattern) or 12 tip (for a smooth edge on icing). You can also use a large ziplock bag with the corner snipped off.
• Fill your bag about half full with buttercream. Pipe the cream firmly into each end of the horn so it fills the entire pastry and comes slightly out the end.
• Using a small sifter, dust the cream-filled pastries with powdered sugar. If desired, you can also drizzle with melted chocolate before serving.
