cream cheese

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: ricotta cheese

Greek yogurt reduces calories while maintaining creaminess

In a mixing bowl, add 1 1/3 cups of cream cheese.

Add 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.

Add 3/4 cup of powdered sugar and mix everything together with a whisk until well combined.

Set the cream cheese mixture aside.

Dust the work surface with coconut flour.

Roll out one sheet of puff pastry a little bit.

Cut the puff pastry into 9 individual squares.

Prepare half of the squares with just the cream cheese mixture and the other half with cream cheese and small slivers of guava paste.

Transfer the cream cheese mixture to a freezer bag for piping.

Beat 1 egg for egg wash.

Form the pastry squares into a diamond shape, fill with the cream cheese mixture, and fold over to seal.

Brush the tops with the egg wash.

Sprinkle granulated sugar on the cheese-only quesitos.

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

Bake the quesitos in the preheated oven for about 25 to 27 minutes until golden brown.

Dust the quesitos with powdered sugar before serving.
