Mille-Feuilles Cakes

Roll out two pounds of rich puff paste, cut it into sixteen pieces marking each one in the center where a piece is to be removed, place them in a moderate oven, and bake. Take them out when done, lift off the centers, fill them with any kind of jam, replace the centers, pile the pieces one on top of another, and the cake is then ready for serving.
