2 cups of cream cheese blended with
1/2 cup of icing sugar
1 tsp of vanilla
Puff Pastry all ready made in the freezer section at the grocery store
Roll out puff pastry and cut in 2 to 4X6 rectangles for each pop tart.
On one side of the pastry fill with 1/4 cup of cream cheese filling
and 1/4 cup of your favorite jam. Strawberry or blueberry tastes really good.
You can even use Nutella Haszelnut Spread.
Place the other piece of puff pastry on top and pinch down the edges
with your fingers or a fork.
Brush pastry with an egg wash and bake on a pan with parchment paper
at 350 degrees for about 15 minutes. Keep a close eye on them baking,
the top should be nice and golden and flaky.
They take a little bit more effort than just pulling them out of the box from the
freezer, but once you make them you won't want to have a pop tart any other way!
Puff pastry is such an easy thing to use. For dinner you can roll out the whole piece
and top it with your favorite gourmet pizza toppings. Bake on a baking sheet, or better yet through it on the bbq.
Toppings suggestions
drizzle pastry with extra virgin olive oil and a sprinkle of sea salt and a little pepper
roasted mushrooms and caramelized onions, and grated Parmesan cheese
roasted red peppers, Italian salami artichokes, and Mozzarella cheese
Pesto, spinach grilled chicken, red peppers and onions and topped with sun dried tomato Havarti cheese.
Taco style
