what you need
- 1 tub (8-ounce) PHILADELPHIA Strawberry Cream Cheese, at room temperature
- 1 large egg, yolk and white separated
- 1/4 cup plus 1 Tbsp. sugar, divided
- 1 sheet frozen puff pastry (from a 17.3-ounce) box, thawed
make it
Preheat oven to 400°F. You'll need a baking sheet. Stir cream cheese, egg yolk and 1/4 cup sugar until blended. Slightly beat egg white in a small bowl.
Place puff pastry lengthwise in center of baking sheet and unfold. With a rolling pin, roll out to a 12-inch-long rectangle. Spoon cheese filling in 2-1/2-inch-wide strip down center. On both sides of filling, cut 1-inch-wide strips from filling to edge. Fold strips at an angle across filling, overlapping and alternating from side to side. Brush with egg white; sprinkle with remaining Tbsp sugar.
Bake 25 minutes until puffed and golden. Cool slightly on sheet on wire rack. Serve warm or at room temperature.
