Ingredients
 

  • 1 sheet puff pastry thawed
  • 4 oz cream cheese softened
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 large egg beaten (for egg wash)
  • 1 tablespoon powdered sugar for garnish

Instructions

  • Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Prepare Puff Pastry: Unfold the thawed puff pastry on a lightly floured surface. Cut it into 6 equal rectangles. Place the rectangles on the prepared baking sheet.
  • Make the Filling: In a bowl, beat the cream cheese, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, and lemon juice until smooth and creamy.
  • Assemble the Danish: Spoon a dollop of the cream cheese mixture into the center of each puff pastry rectangle. Spread it slightly, leaving a 1/2-inch border around the edges.
  • Apply Egg Wash: Brush the edges of each rectangle with the beaten egg. This will help them turn golden brown during baking.
  • Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the puff pastry is golden and puffed.
  • Cool and Garnish: Allow the danishes to cool slightly, then dust with powdered sugar before serving.
