Ingredients

• 1 sheet Reduced-fat puff pastry sheet
• 500 ml Skimmed milk
• 1 packet Low-fat vanilla pudding powder
• 50 grams Granulated sugar
• 100 grams Low-fat cream cheese
• 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 tablespoon Powdered sugar

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 200°C (392°F).

Step 2

Roll out the puff pastry sheet onto a baking tray lined with baking paper.

Step 3

Prick the puff pastry all over with a fork to prevent it from puffing up too much.

Step 4

Bake the puff pastry in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown and crisp. Remove and allow to cool completely.

Step 5

In a saucepan, heat the skimmed milk over medium heat until warm but not boiling.

Step 6

In a medium bowl, combine the vanilla pudding powder, granulated sugar, and cornstarch.

Step 7

Gradually whisk the warm milk into the pudding mixture until smooth and return the mixture to the saucepan.

Step 8

Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and comes to a gentle boil. Remove from heat.

Step 9

Stir in the low-fat cream cheese and vanilla extract until smooth and fully incorporated. Allow to cool slightly.

Step 10

Once the puff pastry has cooled, slice it into two equal halves.

Step 11

Spread the cream filling evenly over one half of the pastry.

Step 12

Place the second half of the pastry on top of the filling, pressing down gently.

Step 13

Refrigerate for at least 2 hours to set.

Step 14

Before serving, dust the top pastry layer with powdered sugar.

Step 15

Slice the cremeschnitte into six portions and serve chilled.
