Filet De Boeuf En Croute image

(Filet Mignon in Puff Pastry) I prefer not to eat out on Valentine's Day, hate fighting the crowds, the noise, the usually bad service because the restaurant is jam packed, the expense...could I have a little cheese with my "whine"? LOL! Here's what I made for the main course last year, and it was to DIE for. Almost too pretty to eat....almost! Enjoy!!! *Prep-time does not include chilling time.

I've tried many filet de boeuf en croute recipes, but this one is by far the best. The crust is so flaky and the beef is always cooked perfectly.
