RECIPE
Ingredients
Filling:
- 1/2 Cup Frozen Cranberries
- 1/2 Orange Zest
- 3 Tsp. Orange Juice
- 4oz Cream Cheese
- 1 Tsp. Vanilla Extract
- 1/2 Cup Powdered Sugar
Crust:
- 2 Puff Pastry Sheets lightly thawed
- 1 Egg White
- 1 tsp. Water
For the glaze
- 1 Cup Powdered Sugar
- 1-2 Tbsp. Milk
- Beat all of the filing ingredients in a food processor until smooth. Set aside and start working on your puff pastry. (You will have a bit of filling left over, you can decide what to do with it or only make 2/3 of a batch if math is your thing.)
- Preheat the oven to 400 F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Roll each puff pastry sheet into a 12 x 12 inch square. Cut each into 9 pieces. Prick with a fork several times in the center.
- Beat the egg white and water together and brush onto each puff pastry square.
- Pipe a scant amount of cranberry cream cheese filling onto each square.
- Bake at 400 F for 15-18 minutes or until puffy and lightly browned (follow baking time on your brand of puff pastry for best results). Cool on wire racks.
- Make the glaze by beating the powdered sugar with enough milk until smooth.
- Drizzle on cooled Danishes and dust with powdered sugar (optional) Best served the same day. Or store tightly covered for up to several days.
