Ingredients
- 8 ounces cream cheese
- 3 tablespoons sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 sheets puff pastry sheets (thawed)
- 1 large egg
- 1 tablespoon milk
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar (for dusting)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a medium bowl, beat the cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
Step 3
Unfold the thawed puff pastry sheets on a lightly floured surface. Cut each sheet into 4 equal squares to make 8 squares total.
Step 4
Place a heaping tablespoon of the cream cheese mixture in the center of each puff pastry square.
Step 5
Fold each square diagonally to form a triangle. Press the edges firmly with a fork to seal.
Step 6
In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and milk to create an egg wash. Brush the tops of the triangles with the egg wash for a golden-brown finish.
Step 7
Place the pillows on the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each one.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the pastries are golden and puffed.
Step 9
Remove from the oven and let the pastries cool for about 10 minutes.
Step 10
Dust the pastries lightly with powdered sugar before serving. Enjoy warm with a cup of chamomile tea or warm milk.
