Ingredients
  

  • 1 sheet Puff Pastry
  • 8 oz Cream cheese
  • cup Granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp Vanilla extract
  • 1 Egg
  • 1 tbsp Milk

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 425º
  • Combine cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla extract
  • Beat until smooth
  • Unroll puff pastry on a parchment lined baking sheet
  • Cut into 16 rectangles, and separate rectangles, moving some to a separate baking sheet if necessary, so that you have at least ½ inch of space between each
  • Spread a tablespoon of cream cheese mixture onto the center of each pastry, leaving a ½ inch edge (optional: score the rectangles with a knife half an inch from the edges all the way around so you have a guide for how far to spread the cream cheese)
  • Fold over the edges diagonal to each other, making little triangles. Gently press the edges closed.
  • Beat egg and milk together, and brush edges of pastry with egg wash
  • Bake in preheated oven for 15 minutes, until golden brown, with flaky edges
