Ingredients needed for this recipe: 

• 9 Rockit™ Apples (Visit rockit.fruitlocator.com to find Rockit Apples in a store near you)
• (2) puff pastry doughs (I found mine in the freezer section at my local grocery store)
• 1-2 tablespoons all purpose flour
• 1 (8oz) softened cream cheese
• 1/2 cup cane sugar
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1 tsp lemon juice
• 1/4 cup egg white wash
• 1 tablespoon powdered sugar (for garnish)

Recipe instructions: 

1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
2. Let’s make mini Rockit™ Apples & Cheese danishes together. Start with 2 puff pastry doughs at room temperature. (I found them in the freezer section at my local grocery store). Lightly flour a surface and spread the pastry dough flat.
3. Use a pizza cutter or knife to slice the puff pastry into 18 equal squares (if you’re using 2 sheets of puff pastry, it will be 9 small squares)
4. In a mixing bowl, beat together cream cheese, sugar, lemon juice, and vanilla extract. Fill into a piping bag or use a spoon to scoop cheese batter onto pastry squares.
5. Cut Rockit™ Apples into fine slices and layer onto cheese + pastry combo.
6. Fold the puff pastries into squares and brush them with egg wash. Sprinkle them with cane sugar.
7. Bake for 15 minutes or until the danish is lightly toasted.
8. Serve and enjoy!
