Best Cream Filled Puff Pastries Recipes

CREAM-FILLED PUFF PASTRIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Spray a baking sheet with nonstick spray.
• Fold a 12-inch square sheet of aluminum foil in half, turn and fold in half again; you should have a small square. Now, fold diagonally and once more again. You will now have a triangle. Wrap it around your index finger and mold into a cone shape. Repeat 9 more times to make 10 molds. (Note: these can be reused.) Lightly spray the foil molds with nonstick spray.
• Lay out the puff pastry sheet on a work surface with one of the long sides facing you. Cut the pastry into 3/4-inch-wide strips from top to bottom to make 20 strips. Wrap 2 pastry strips around each mold, overlapping a little with each wrap. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet and bake until lightly browned around the edges, 16 to 18 minutes. Let cool.
• Meanwhile, whisk together the cream cheese and butter in a bowl. Add the confectioners' sugar in batches with the salt. Gently fold in the blackberry preserves (so there is some veining). Transfer to a disposable pastry bag fitted with a large star tip and place in the fridge for at least 30 minutes to let the filling firm up.
• Pipe the filling into each pastry from the wider end. Serve with a dusting of confectioners' sugar and some blackberries and mint.

EASY AND DELICIOUS CREAM/CHOCOLATE-FILLED PUFF PASTRIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Unroll puff pastry onto your work surface. Cut each sheet into 9 squares using a pizza cutter, making 18 squares in all.
• Mix cream cheese, mascarpone cheese, egg yolk, flour, honey, white sugar, and vanilla extract together in a bowl. Drop a teaspoonful of filling onto each pastry square until all filling is used. Add 7 to 10 chocolate chips to each square.
• Dampen 1 side of each square with water. Stretch and fold in half. Press securely closed on all three sides.
• Place pastries close together onto a large baking sheet. Whip egg white in a small bowl. Brush onto the pastries; sprinkle with colored sugar.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 13 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

• Stir until the chips have all melted and mixture has thickened again.
• Add cream cheese, butter, and vanilla and once again stir until all incorporated and mixture almost starts to boil, or until it reaches the consistency of hot fudge. Be careful not to let the chocolate on the bottom burn!

• Cut each pastry sheet into four squares.
• Place sqaures on greased cookie sheets.
• Place approximately 1/4 cup of filling in center of pastry and then immediately fold corners in to make a square envelope. Pinch the corners to ensure that it stays together.

• Sprinkle puff pastries with cinnamon sugar.
• Place in oven and bake for approxiately 30 minutes or until the puff pastry is golden brown and flakey.
• Allow to cool for 10-15 minutes and then sprinkle powdered sugar over the top of each pastry square before serving.
