Preparation

Making the Pastry Dough

1. Prepare Ingredients

Gather all the ingredients for the pastry dough and ensure the butter is cold and cut into small cubes.

2. Mix Dry Ingredients

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, and salt until well combined.

3. Incorporate Butter

Add the cold butter cubes to the flour mixture. Using a pastry cutter or your fingertips, mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

4. Add Egg Yolks and Water

Stir in the egg yolks and cold water gradually. Mix until the dough comes together. If too dry, add more cold water, 1 tablespoon at a time.

5. Chill the Dough

Form the dough into a disk, wrap it in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

Preparing the Fillings

6. Make Cream Cheese Filling

In a mixing bowl, beat together the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.

7. Prepare Fresh Fruit

Wash and slice the fresh fruit as needed for filling the pastries.

Assembling the Pastries

8. Preheat Oven

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

9. Roll Out Dough

On a floured surface, roll out the chilled pastry dough to about 1/4 inch thick.

10. Cut Shapes

Use a pastry cutter or knife to cut out desired shapes for the pastries (e.g., circles, squares).

11. Fill Pastries

Place a spoonful of cream cheese filling and a few pieces of fruit or chocolate chips in the center of each pastry shape.

12. Seal Pastries

Fold the pastry over the filling and pinch the edges to seal. Use a fork to crimp the edges if desired.

13. Apply Egg Wash

Brush the tops of the pastries with the egg wash for a golden finish.

14. Sprinkle Toppings

If desired, sprinkle the tops with sprinkles.

Baking the Pastries

15. Bake

Place the pastries on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.

16. Cool and Serve

Once baked, remove from the oven and allow to cool on a wire rack before serving.
