Step‑by‑Step Instructions
- Thaw the Puff Pastry by placing sheets at room temperature for about 30 minutes or microwave on defrost for 10-15 seconds until pliable.
- Prepare the Cream Cheese Filling by beating together softened cream cheese and granulated sugar for 2-3 minutes, then add egg yolk, lemon juice, and vanilla extract.
- Cut the Puff Pastry Sheets into six rectangles on a lightly floured surface and score a smaller rectangle inside each piece.
- Fill the Pastry by placing a couple of tablespoons of cream cheese filling in the center of each scored rectangle, adding berries or jam if desired.
- Brush with Egg Wash by whisking the remaining egg with water and applying it to the edges of each filled pastry.
- Bake to perfection in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 15-20 minutes until golden-brown.
- Cool and Glaze by letting pastries cool for 10-15 minutes, then drizzle glaze made from powdered sugar and milk.
