Ingredients

Cheesecake Filling

• 8 oz (225 g) cream cheese, softened

• 1/3 cup granulated sugar

• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Strawberry Filling

• 1 cup fresh strawberries, diced
  (or strawberry pie filling/jam as a shortcut)

Pastry

• 1 sheet puff pastry, thawed

• 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)

Optional Toppings

• Powdered sugar, for dusting

Instructions

1. Preheat Oven
   Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. Prepare Cheesecake Filling
   In a bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.

3. Prepare the Pastry
   Roll out the puff pastry on a lightly floured surface. Cut into equal squares (about 4–6 squares per sheet).

4. Fill the Turnovers
   Spoon a dollop of cheesecake filling into the center of each square. Add diced strawberries or a spoonful of strawberry filling on top.

5. Shape
   Fold each square into a triangle. Press edges with a fork to seal.

6. Egg Wash
   Brush the tops lightly with beaten egg for a golden finish.

7. Bake
   Bake for 18–22 minutes, or until puffed and golden brown.

8. Cool & Serve
   Let cool slightly, then dust with powdered sugar before serving.
