Ingredients
- 1/2 of a 17.3-ounce package Pepperidge Farm® Puff Pastry Sheets (1 sheet), thawed
- 1 egg, beaten
- 3/4 cup cream cheese, softened
- 3 tbsp. confectioners’ sugar
- 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup thawed frozen whipped topping
- 36 fresh raspberries or semi-sweet chocolate pieces
Directions
- Heat the oven to 375°F.
- Unfold the pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface. Roll the pastry sheet into an 18×9-inch rectangle. Cut into 18 (3-inch) squares. Press the pastry squares into 18 muffin-pan cups. Brush the edges of the pastries with the egg. Prick the centers of the pastries with a fork.
- Bake for 10 minutes or until the pastries are golden brown. Using the back of a spoon, press down the centers of the hot pastries to make an indentation. Let the pastries cool in the pans on wire racks for 5 minutes. Remove the pastry cups from the pans and let cool completely on wire racks.
- Beat the cream cheese in a medium bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth. Beat in the confectioners’ sugar and vanilla extract. Fold in the whipped topping.
- Spoon about 1 tablespoon cream cheese mixture into each pastry cup. Refrigerate for 10 minutes or until the filling is firm. Top each pastry with 2 raspberries. Sprinkle with additional confectioners’ sugar, if desired.
