Serves:
Ingredients
- 2puff pastry sheets,frozen, 1 package, thawed
- 8ozcream cheese,1 package, room temperature
- 2cupssugar,powdered, or more
- 4tbspbutter,softened
- 3cupsstrawberries,hulled
- 2tbspsugar
- 1cupblueberries,fresh
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
-
Lay out the thawed puff pastry on a floured surface, and gently, use a rolling pin to even out the creases. Use a pizza cutter or a large knife to cut the pastry into your desired shapes. You can also use cookie cutters or cut different-sized shapes.
-
Lay out the cut pastry dough on a baking sheet or two. Then use a fork to then poke numerous holes into the middle of each piece to minimize inflation.
-
Bake the pastry for about 12 to 15 minutes or according to the package directions, until it is puffed and very lightly golden. Remove and let cool.
-
While the pastry is baking, use a blender or food processor to puree the strawberries and sugar. Transfer the mixture to a small saucepan and bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
-
Reduce the heat to medium-low, and let simmer for 10 to 15 minutes until reduced and thickened. Remove from heat.
-
Meanwhile, whisk together (or use an electric mixer to combine) the cream cheese, butter, and powdered sugar on medium-high speed until smooth. Add more powdered sugar if you would like a thicker cream cheese spread.
To Assemble:
-
Top the cooked puff pastries with the cream cheese spread, then layer with the drizzled strawberry mixture and blueberries. Serve immediately, or cover and refrigerate for up to a few days.
