Cream Cheese Puff Pastry Bites
Description
This recipe uses thawed square puff pastry sheets cut into smaller squares, paired with kiri cream cheese cut into small squares as filling. Each cream cheese square is placed on a pastry square which is then folded diagonally into a triangle and sealed by crimping the edges with a fork. The assembled triangles are arranged on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and brushed with melted butter to promote browning and flavor. They are baked at 200°C (400°F) for 15-20 minutes until the pastry is deep golden and puffed. Served warm, the bites combine flaky pastry with a creamy, mild cheese center. Drizzling honey or sprinkling icing sugar adds a sweet contrast, enhancing the taste.
