Ingredients

1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened1/3 cup sugar2 large egg yolks1 tablespoon grated lemon zest1 teaspoon vanilla extract1/4 teaspoon salt1 package (17.3 ounces) frozen puff pastry, thawed1 large egg1 tablespoon water

Preparation

Preheat oven to 400°. In a large bowl, beat cream cheese and sugar until fluffy. Add egg yolks, lemon zest, vanilla and salt; beat on low speed until blended.

On a lightly floured surface, roll out each sheet of puff pastry into a 12-in. square. Cut each into nine squares. Spoon 2-1/2 teaspoons of cheese mixture into the center of each square.

Whisk egg and water; lightly brush over edges. Bring two opposite corners of pastry over filling; pinch to seal. Place on a greased baking sheet; brush with remaining egg mixture. Bake until golden brown, 10-12 minutes.
