Steps:
- Heat oven to 400ºF.
- Beat cream cheese and butter in large bowl with mixer until blended. Gradually beat in flour. Shape into ball; wrap in plastic wrap. Refrigerate while preparing empanada filling.
- Cook meat and onions in large skillet on medium-high heat 9 to 10 min. or until meat is done, stirring frequently. Drain. Cool completely.
- Roll out dough on lightly floured surface to 1/8-inch thickness. Use 4-inch cookie or biscuit cutter to cut dough into 24 rounds, rerolling scraps as necessary. Spoon 1 Tbsp. meat mixture onto center of each; brush edge with egg. Fold in half; seal edges with fork.
- Place on baking sheet sprayed with cooking spray. Cut small slits in tops to vent; brush with remaining egg.
- Bake 18 to 20 min. or until golden brown.
