Delicious Raspberry Cream Cheese Bites Recipe

Ingredients

  • 1 sheet of puff pastry thawed
  • 1 8 oz package of cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup raspberry jam or preserves
  • Fresh raspberries optional, for garnish
  • Powdered sugar optional, for dusting

Instructions

  • Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Prepare the Puff Pastry: Roll out the thawed puff pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface to smooth out any creases. Cut the pastry into 12 equal squares and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
  • Make the Cream Cheese Filling: In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
  • Fill the Pastry Squares: Place a teaspoon of the cream cheese mixture in the center of each puff pastry square. Add a small dollop (about 1/2 teaspoon) of raspberry jam on top of the cream cheese mixture.
  • Fold the Pastry: Fold the corners of each pastry square toward the center, pressing gently to seal.
  • Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes, or until the pastries are golden brown and puffed.
  • Cool and Garnish: Allow the pastries to cool on a wire rack. If desired, garnish with fresh raspberries and dust with powdered sugar before serving
