Cream Cheese and Honey Turnovers image

Oh yum! As you bite into the puff pastry, there's a lovely crunch from the buttery, flaky crust. The honey-vanilla cream cheese filling is smooth and creamy. It has a nice tang from the cream cheese, but the honey adds a hint of sweetness. The sprinkled sugar on top just adds to the sweetness. These are simple, yet delicious.

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 pkg puff pastry sheet, thawed
1 pkg cream cheese (room temp), 8 oz
1/4 c honey
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 egg (beaten for egg wash)
white sugar (for dusting)

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat the oven at 350° and grease two cookie sheets. Put them aside.
  • 2. Mix the room temp cream cheese, honey and vanilla extract. You can do it by hand with a wooden spoon or mix it in the electric mixer until everything is incorporated.
  • 3. Cut each puff pastry sheets in either 9 small squares or 6 big squares.
  • 4. Put 1 or 2 Tbsp of the filling per square of puff pastry. To close them, in a diamond like position take each corner and put them one on top the other and press to secure.
  • 5. Now put all turnovers on the pre-greased cookie sheets. Beat the egg and brush each turnover well. This is going to seal each turnover. You can sprinkle sugar on top before or after bake.
  • 6. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until golden.
