Recipe by Layla Atik with Gimme Delicious

Serves 8

INGREDIENTS
1 can (15 oz., 425g) Libby’s® Peach Slices (in Fruit Juice) (drained)
2 sheet puff pastry (thawed)
4 oz cream cheese (room temperature)
2 tbsp sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 large egg (beaten well, plus 1 tbsp water)
Optional Glaze
1⁄2 c powdered sugar
1 tsp milk
1⁄2 tsp pure vanilla extract

INSTRUCTIONS

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Line small baking sheet with parchment paper.

In medium bowl, beat cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla until creamy; set aside.

Unfold puff pastry sheets onto lightly floured work surface. Using 4-inch round cookie cutter (or glass), cut out four circles from each sheet of puff pastry. Transfer circles to baking sheet and top with about 1 tbsp of cream cheese mixture and 2-3 Libby’s® Peach Slices.

In small bowl, whisk together egg with 1 tbsp water. Brush edges of pastries with egg wash. Bake pastries for 15 to 18 minutes, or until golden and puffed. Remove pastry from oven and cool for at least 15 minutes.

To make glaze, whisk powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla in small bowl. Drizzle over cooled pastries.
