Ingredients
Scale
For the Crust:
1 sheet puff pastry, thawed
8 oz cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup cherry pie filling
1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
1 tbsp powdered sugar (for dusting)
Instructions
1. Prepare the Crust:
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a bowl, mix cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla until smooth.
Roll out the puff pastry sheet and cut into 4 equal squares. Spread the cream cheese mixture in the center of each square, leaving a border around the edges.
Top each square with a spoonful of cherry pie filling. Fold the edges of the pastry over the filling, pinching the corners to seal.
Brush the edges with beaten egg for a golden finish. Bake for 20-25 minutes until puffed and golden.
Let cool slightly, then dust with powdered sugar before serving.
