Ingredients
Scale
For the Bites:
- 1 package (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup fresh raspberries, plus more for garnish
- 1/4 cup white chocolate chips, melted
- 2 sheets of puff pastry, thawed
For the Glaze:
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare:
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. - Prepare the Filling:
In a bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth. Gently fold in the fresh raspberries and melted white chocolate, taking care not to crush the raspberries too much. - Assemble the Bites:
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the thawed puff pastry sheets. Cut each sheet into squares, about 3×3 inches. Place a spoonful of the raspberry cream cheese mixture in the center of each square. Fold the corners of the pastry over the filling and pinch the edges to seal. Arrange the bites on the prepared baking sheet. - Bake:
Bake for 15-18 minutes, or until the pastry turns golden brown and puffs up beautifully. - Prepare the Glaze:
While the bites are baking, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract in a small bowl until smooth and drizzly. - Finish the Bites:
Once baked, let the bites cool slightly. Drizzle with the vanilla glaze and garnish with fresh raspberries for an extra touch of flavor.
