Puff pastry danish Recipe

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).

Roll out the puff pastry on a lightly floured surface until thin.

Cut the pastry into squares, about 4x4 inches.

In a bowl, mix cream cheese, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and lemon zest until smooth.

Place a spoonful of the cream cheese mixture in the center of each pastry square.

Add a dollop of fruit preserves on top of the cream cheese mixture.

Fold the corners of the pastry squares towards the center to form a pocket.

Brush the edges with egg wash to seal the pastry.

Sprinkle sliced almonds on top of each Danish.

Place the pastries on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown.

Remove from the oven and let cool slightly.

Mix additional powdered sugar with a splash of milk to create a glaze.

Drizzle the glaze over the warm pastries before serving.
