INSTRUCTIONS

1.  Preheat your oven to 400°F and thaw your puff pastry sheets according to the instructions on the packaging.

2. Cut your puff pastry into hearts using a cookie cutter. If preferred, you can also make them squares with a knife, a circle using a cup, or use any cookie cutters you have.

3. Transfer your shapes to a parchment lined sheet pan. Brush the tops with a beaten egg and bake fore 15 minutes or until golden and flaky. 

4. While the pastries bake, make a cream cheese filling by combining 1 cup cream cheese, ¼ powdered sugar, and 1 tsp vanilla extract. Whisk for 5 minutes or until light and fluffy.

5. Once the pastries have baked and cooled, slice them down the middle.

6. One the bottom half, spread a layer of strawberry jam. You can use store-bought or homemade.

7. Pipe on the cream cheese filling on top of the strawberry jam and close the pastries by putting the top half back on the bottom. 

8. Mix together ½ cup powdered sugar and 1-2 tbsp milk to make a glaze. Spread this on the top half of the pastries.

9. We added heart sprinkles on top for Valentine's Day, but you can add any sprinkles you want or leave the sprinkles out entirely.
