Ingredients
- 6 ounces cream cheese at room temperature
- ½ cup powdered sugar
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 8 ounces frozen puff pastry thawed (1 sheet)
- ¾ cup raspberry jam
Icing
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 3-4 tablespoons water
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 360 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set it aside.
- In a medium bowl, stir together the cream cheese, powdered sugar, vanilla, and lemon zest until smooth. Set aside.
- Lay out the sheet of puff pastry on the prepared baking sheet. Cut the dough into 8 rectangular pieces.
- Brush each piece of pastry with a thin layer of raspberry jam. (This help keeps the pastry from getting too soft from the cream cheese.) Spread 1 tablespoon of sweetened cream cheese over each pastry piece. Then divide the remaining jam evenly between the pieces and spread it out over the cream cheese.
- Take opposite corners of one pastry piece and firmly pinch them together in the middle of the danish so they'll stay together while baking. Repeat with the remaining pastry.
- Beat the egg in a small bowl. Brush the egg wash over the outsides of each danish.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes o until golden brown and baked through.
- Remove the danishes from the oven and let cool completely.
- If you'd like to add some glaze on top of the danishes: Add the powdered sugar to a mixing bowl and 2 tablespoons of water. Add 1 teaspoon of water at a time, whisking as you go until the glaze reaches the desired consistency.
- Drizzle the glaze over the cooled danishes and enjoy!
