Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).

Roll out puff pastry on a floured surface until thin.

Cut the pastry into rectangles and place on a baking sheet.

Bake until golden and puffed, about 15-20 minutes.

Let the pastry cool completely.

Prepare pastry cream by whisking eggs and sugar in a bowl.

Heat milk in a saucepan until steaming, then slowly add to egg mixture.

Return mixture to heat and cook until thickened, stirring constantly.

Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract and butter.

Layer three pieces of pastry, spreading pastry cream in between each layer.

Top with a final pastry piece and dust with powdered sugar.

Decorate with fruit, chocolate, or whipped cream as desired.
