How To Make cream cheese jam danishes

  • Step 1
    Roll out puff pastry to a 12×10 rectangle, cut into 8 equal pieces. Place pieces on parchment lined baking sheet. Preheat oven to 400.
  • Step 2
    Mix together the cream cheese, egg white (set aside yolk), sugar and vanilla.
  • Step 3
    Mix egg yolk in a small dish with 1 tsp water. Brush lightly over pastry squares.
  • Step 4
    Spoon the cream cheese mixture into the middle of each pastry square, dividing it equally as possible between them.
  • Step 5
    In the center of the filling, spoon about 1-1 1/2 tsp of jam.
  • Step 6
    Bake in preheated oven for 15-18 minutes or until puffed and golden brown.
  • Step 7
    Immediately move to a cooling rack. Leftovers can be stored in an air tight container for up to 4 days, but best enjoyed same day.
