Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).

Roll out the puff pastry on a lightly floured surface to fit your baking dish.

Transfer the puff pastry to the baking dish and trim the edges as needed.

In a mixing bowl, beat together the cream cheese, sugar, vanilla extract, and salt until smooth.

Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the puff pastry base.

Whisk together the eggs and milk in a separate bowl until well combined.

Pour the egg mixture over the cream cheese layer, spreading it gently if needed.

Arrange the mixed berries on top of the egg mixture in a decorative pattern.

Sprinkle lemon zest over the berries for added flavor.

Brush the edges of the puff pastry with egg wash for a golden finish.

Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the pastry is puffed and golden brown.

Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before dusting with powdered sugar.

Slice into squares and serve warm or at room temperature.
