Steps:

• Take the frozen pastry out of the freezer and let it thaw on the counter for about 30 minutes (do not unfold- it will easily break).

• Place the puff pastry on a try lined with parchment paper, dust it with flour and roll it out carefully.

• Spread the cherries on top of the filling.
• Using a pizza cutter or kitchen scissors, cut the sides of the pastry into 1 inch wide strips. Cut towards the filling, leaving about 1 inch before actually getting to the filling.
• Alternating the sides, fold them in over the filling until it will look like a braided pastry with fruit peeking out.
• Brush the dough with the beaten egg yolk.

CHERRY CREAM CHEESE DANISH

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
• Lay the puff pastry sheets on a lightly floured surface, and cut each sheet into 6 equal-sized rectangles. You will have a total of 12 rectangles, about 4½x3 inches in size.
• Arrange the puff pastries evenly onto the lined baking sheets, leaving about 1 inch between each pastry.
• Use a fork to poke a few holes into the middle of the pastry sheet. Be sure to leave about a ½-inch perimeter around the edge. This will allow the outside border to puff up while the center stays low and holds the filling.
• In a medium bowl stir together the cream cheese, sugar, and almond extract until fully combined.
• Spread 1 heaping tablespoon of the cream cheese mixture onto the center of each puff pastry.
• Top the cream cheese mixture with 2 heaping tablespoons of cherry pie filling.
• In a small bowl, whisk the egg and water together. Brush onto the outside edges of the pastry.
• Bake for 15-18 minutes, or until golden.
• Remove from oven and dust with confectioners' sugar. Set aside to cool slightly before serving.
