Ingredients

1 Sheet Puff Pastry - Thawed
4 Oz Cream Cheese - Softened
2 Tbsp Powdered Sugar
1/2 Tsp Vanilla
1/3 Cup Raspberry Jam
1/2 Cup Raspberries
1 Egg
1 Tbsp Water
Powdered Sugar - Garnish

Directions

Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Unfold the thawed puff pastry and gently roll it out to smooth the seams.
Cut the pastry into 6 equal rectangles or squares and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
In a small bowl, mix the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar and vanilla until smooth.
Spoon about 1 tablespoon of the cream cheese mixture into the centre of each piece of pastry.
Add about 1–2 teaspoons raspberry jam over the cream cheese. Top with a couple of fresh raspberries if using.
Fold two opposite corners of each pastry toward the centre, overlapping slightly, or leave the pastries open for a traditional Danish-style shape.
Whisk together the egg and water and lightly brush the exposed pastry with the egg wash.
Bake for 15–18 minutes, or until the pastry is puffed and deeply golden around the edges.
Allow to cool for about 10 minutes, then lightly dust with powdered sugar.
