1 sheet of puff pastry is not enough first of all. And way too much cream. It also never thickened ever, why? no flour or cornstarch. Once I started spooning the cream mixture over the beef forget it.

This was a huge hit for Christmas Dinner - with my family and guests. Only issues were I was not certain what consistency the sauce should be and the dogh got a little messy, but for this I blame myself not the receipe. In the end it was wonderful.

I've made Beef Wellington before, so I tried this one with alot of caution. 2.5 cups of cream is much too much. The pastry took too long to cook at that temp. Recommend, upping the temp to about 425 and only cooking pastry for about 20 mins. You definately need a meat thermometer with this recipe, unless you like messing up beef at $16 per lb

I didn't like the cream sauce and the puff pastry got soggy. So to remedy it, I cooked the pastry shells and meat separately. I put the cooked meat into the cooked shell and layered it with goat cheese (boursin works well too) and popped it back in the oven for 5 minutes so the cheese would warm up. My husband and I like it this way.

Change the beef to chicken and add ham and it is really good. Like cordon blue in puff pastry.

I made this one with 2 cups of cream instead of 1 1/2 and I even threw in some fresh mushrooms. My daughter even ate it! The cooking time should be lessened if you want a steak that is more pink in the center though.

It's a great recipe that is fairly easy to follow. The only thing that can be tricky, is folding the filo dough. Mine didn't look "pretty," but I'm sure I'll get the hang of it next time. In the end they still looked impressive and did taste great. If you have the time, I say give this a try.
