FRUIT AND CREAM CHEESE BREAKFAST PASTRIES RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400ºF (200ºC), and prepare two cookie sheets with parchment paper.
• In a bowl, mix cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla until fully combined.
• Lightly flour the surface and roll out puff pastry on top to flatten.
• Cut each sheet of puff pastry into 9 equal squares.
• On the top right and bottom left of the pastry, cut an L shape approximately ½ inch (1 cm) from the edge.
• NOTE: This L shape should reach all the way down and across the square, however both L shapes should not meet at the ends. Your pastry should look like a picture frame with two corners still intact.
• Take the upper right corner and fold down towards the inner bottom corner. You will now have a diamond shape.
• Place 1 to 2 teaspoons of the cream cheese filling in the middle, then place berries on top.
• Repeat with the remaining pastry squares and place them onto the parchment covered baking sheet.
• Bake for 15-20 minutes or until pastry is golden brown and puffed.
• Enjoy!
