1 teaspoon vanilla extract
24 fresh raspberries

1 package refrigerated puff pastry sheets (2 sheets), thawed

Topping

1 egg beaten (for egg wash)
1 tablespoon granulated sugar (optional, for sprinkling)

Instructions

Preparation

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a bowl, combine softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth.
Unfold puff pastry sheets and cut each into 12 equal squares, totaling 24 squares.
Place about 1 teaspoon of cream cheese mixture in the center of each pastry square.
Top each mixture with one fresh raspberry, pressing gently.
Fold corners of pastries over filling and pinch edges to seal.

Brush tops with beaten egg and optionally sprinkle with granulated sugar.
Bake for 15-18 minutes or until golden brown.
Remove from oven and let cool slightly before serving.
