Method

  1. Preheat the oven: Set to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. Prepare the filling: In a bowl, mix cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth.

  3. Assemble the danish: Cut the puff pastry into 6 rectangles. Place a spoonful of cream cheese mixture in the center of each rectangle. Fold over the edges to encase the filling slightly. Brush the edges with beaten egg.

  4. Bake: Bake for 15-18 minutes, or until golden and puffy.

  5. Serve: Let cool for 5 minutes before serving warm or at room temperature.

Chef's Tip

Serve with a dusting of powdered sugar or a drizzle of honey. Pair with a cappuccino or espresso for a café-style treat.
