Ingredients

  • 1 (17.25 ounce) package frozen puff pastry, defrosted

  • 1 (3 ounce) package cream cheese, softened

  • 1 (3 ounce) package mascarpone cheese

  • 1 egg, separated

  • 2 ½ tablespoons all-purpose flour

  • 1 tablespoon honey (Optional)

  • 1 tablespoon white sugar

  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract

  • 1 (8 ounce) package semisweet chocolate chips, or to taste

  • 1 tablespoon colored decorating sugar, or as needed

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

  2. Unroll puff pastry onto your work surface. Cut each sheet into 9 squares using a pizza cutter, making 18 squares in all.

  3. Mix cream cheese, mascarpone cheese, egg yolk, flour, honey, white sugar, and vanilla extract together in a bowl. Drop a teaspoonful of filling onto each pastry square until all filling is used. Add 7 to 10 chocolate chips to each square.

  4. Dampen 1 side of each square with water. Stretch and fold in half. Press securely closed on all three sides.

  5. Place pastries close together onto a large baking sheet. Whip egg white in a small bowl. Brush onto the pastries; sprinkle with colored sugar.

  6. Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 13 minutes.

Cook's Note:

Cinnamon chips can be substituted for the chocolate chips.
