Steps:

• Combine cherries, water, lemon juice, sugar and cornstarch in a small sauce pan. Bring the cherry mixture to a boil over medium-high heat; reduce the heat to low.

Allow the filling to cool while thawing the pastry dough, at room temperature, about 45 minutes to 1 hour.

• In a small mixing bowl, stir together the softened cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla. Spoon 2 to 3 tablespoons of cream cheese mixture into the middle of each piece of dough. Spread the cream cheese evenly, trying to make sure the mixture stays within the borders.
• Spoon 5 to 7 cherries into the middle of the cream cheese with some of the cherry juice.
• Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, on the middle rack in the oven.

EASY CHERRY DANISH WITH SWEET CREAM CHEESE

Steps:

• Take the frozen pastry out of the freezer and let it thaw on the counter for about 30 minutes (do not unfold- it will easily break). Beat cream cheese and sugar on low speed until creamy. Add egg yolk, vanilla extract, lemon juice and salt and continue mixing until the mixture is nice and smooth. Place the puff pastry on a try lined with parchment paper, dust it with flour and roll it out carefully. Place the cream cheese mixture down the middle of the puff pastry sheet lengthwise- creating about a 3 inch strip of filling. Spread the cherries on top of the filling. Using a pizza cutter or kitchen scissors, cut the sides of the pastry into 1 inch wide strips. Cut towards the filling, leaving about 1 inch before actually getting to the filling. Alternating the sides, fold them in over the filling until it will look like a braided pastry with fruit peeking out. Brush the dough with the beaten egg yolk. Bake for 400° F for 25 minutes until golden brown. Mix powdered sugar and milk and mix until well blended. Let it cool before glazing the pastry.
