White Chocolate, Cream Cheese Berry Pastries

December 29, 2014 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 4 Comments

Hi Everyone,

Today’s recipe was not planned!  It was one of those emergency recipes.  You know the kind where you search through the refrigerator looking for what you can throw together in a pinch, and to boot the stores aren’t open?  It was on Christmas day this recipe was born.  Every year as a tradition, I buy Trader Joe’s Croissants to serve while opening presents.  To make the croissants, the night before you just take them out of the package and let them thaw and rise.  In the morning I brush them with egg wash and pop them in the oven.  Presto!  Good food and a happy family.  Well this year I forgot to take them out of the freezer before bed.  As soon as I got up I knew what I have forgotten to do the night before.  I read the package and it says 7-9 hours to defrost.  Sigh….  What do I do?  No snack while opening presents?  Then I remembered I had puff pastry in the refrigerator and thought I could make my own croissants.  I placed flour on my pastry board, made the egg wash, turned the oven on and then I opened the package of puff pastry.  Crappers, it was moldy!  Now what do I do?  I was just about ready to give up and I saw that I had a Pillsbury Pie Crust in the refrigerator.  I thought, I wonder if I could make croissants with a pie crust?  I’ve made Poptarts with them, why not give it a try?  Well as you must know, they turned out perfect.  Not puff pastry, not croissants, but a wonderful sweet pastry to have while opening presents.  Yeah!  I saved Christmas, okay, maybe I’m going a little to far with that, but I did make a new pastry that I love!
White Chocolate Cream Cheese Berry Pastries
These little pastries are filled with cream cheese, berry jam and white chocolate chips. To give them a little bit of pizzazz I added powdered sugar to the top. I think it adds a nice extra little sweetness. For the jam I used my Chia Seed Berry Jam, but strawberry or especially raspberry would go wonderful. Raspberry and white chocolate go great together.  Yum!
White Chocolate Cream Cheese Berry Pastries
To make the recipe, it is so easy! It will take you maybe 10 minutes tops to put it all together and then about 22 minutes to bake it. To make it, I rolled out my pie crust and with a rolling-pin, to flattened the edges. Then I lightly smeared the cream cheese that was mixed with vanilla extract to the dough. Then I topped the cream cheese with jam. With a sharp knife cut the dough into 8 slices. Then you will have 8 triangles. Sprinkled a little bit of white chocolate chips onto each triangle then roll up. Brush with egg wash and place in the oven and bake until lightly golden. Perfect!

A sweet, light and flaky pie crust that is filled with cream cheese, jam and white chocolate chips.
Author: Jennifer Drummond
Recipe type: Pastry
Serves: 8
Ingredients
  • 1 pre-made pie crust ( I used Pillsbury)
  • 3oz. cream cheese, softened (1/3 reduced fat)
  • ¼ tsp. vanilla etract
  • ¼ cup berry jam (your favorite kind)
  • ¼ cup white chocolate chips
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • 1 tbsp. water
  • powdered sugar, optional
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees
  2. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper; set aside.
  3. In a small bowl, beat egg and water; set aside.
  4. In a small bowl, mix cream cheese and vanilla extract until evenly combined.
  5. Sprinkle a little bit of flour onto work surface. Roll out pie crust to flatten the edges. Carefully spread the cream cheese over the pie crust, leaving about ½" from the edge. Spread jam over cream cheese. (If jam is to thick, microwave for 10 seconds to soften.)
  6. Cut pie crust into 8 wedges. Sprinkle a few white chocolate chips onto each wedge.
  7. Roll up each wedge, starting at the shortest side and rolling to the opposite point. Place the pastries, point side down, on the baking sheet. Brush the egg on the tops and sides of the pastries.
  8. Bake in oven for 20 - 25 minutes until golden brown. Let it rest for 10 minutes before serving. Sprinkle with powdered sugar if desired.
Notes
You could use any kind of jam you like. Raspberry, Strawberry or a Mixed Berry would go perfect with this recipe.

The pastry may crack a little when baking, the powdered sugar covers that up well. Trust me, know one knows.

I thought this recipe was so easy, that I have a few other creations I want to try. Funny when you make a “Wing It” recipe they end up being the best ones.   I have to admit those are my favorites!

Have a great week! I am off this week, and plan on getting some much needed R&R.

Toodles,

Jennifer

Happy Friday! It’s finally here! Woohoo! I thou Happy Friday! It’s finally here!  Woohoo! I thought I would end the week with some inspiration by sharing my friend Tina @my.farmhouse.fanatic.life.
❤️
I just love Tina. I’ve known her well over a year and she is truly a sweetheart. She’s a Wife, Mom, and has the cutest fur babies. Her style is Farmhouse with a touch of modern.
❤️
Tina and her husband just finished remodeling there kitchen and it is so dreamy. The wood vent hood over the stove is so gorgeous. Her coffee bar is one of my favorites with the cute awning. I want an awning.
❤️
I’m sharing with you my favorite space in her home, her sunroom. I just love the swing and that beautiful brick wall. The perfect spot to relax with a cup of coffee or tea.
❤️
Tina is one to follow, be sure to check out her page. You won’t be disappointed. Have the most amazing weekend.

Happy Thursday! I am a day ahead of myself this w Happy Thursday!  I am a day ahead of myself this week. I thought yesterday was Thursday and I was excited because I thought today was Friday. I knew what day of the week it was, but my brain didn’t get it. Does that ever happen to you?
🐶
I’m sharing with you my new dog bone container that I got from @outshine_co. Oh my gosh Sampson loves it! Mom, move out of the way, I’m taking over!!
🐶
Hi all! This is Sammy here! I just have to tell you my Mom now has no excuse not to have bones in the house anymore. This beautiful container hold 5 boxes of my favorite Trader Joe’s bones. My Mom also needs to know that carrots, celery or a piece of lettuce doesn’t cut it! Bones is what I must have!
🐶
The container is made of a nice heavy coated carbon steel and holds 12lbs or 54 cups of dog food and bones. 🤩Yes thank you! That is what I’m taking about. The only thing is, the lid is so well fitted and airtight that I can’t get my paws in it. What’s up with that? Not fair! I need access to bones at all times.
🐶
My Mom loves the container too because it looks pretty on her counter and even comes with a sticker that she can write my name on. I absolutely love this container! Thank you Outshine Co. for sending this to me, I mean my Mom.
🐶
Thank your for letting me take over! I miss and love you guys!  Love Sampson!

Happy Wednesday! Half way through the week. I’m Happy Wednesday!  Half way through the week. I’m sharing with you, possibly my last look of my living room in it’s winter decor. I am so ready to add some color.
🪴
Depending on what is going on this weekend, I hoping to go to Homegoods for maybe a new blanket and some pillows. The only thing what color? I’m almost gravitating towards pink?
🪴
Though, yellow may look nice with the green plants. However, I do have so many pillows. Maybe I should look for pillow covers? Less storage. Pillows take up so much room. Oh the decisions.
🪴
I’ve seen some of you share pillow covers from Hobby Lobby. I’ve never seen them at my store, but I’ll do a search when I’m there? I guess that means I’m hitting up Hobby Lobby too. 😂
🪴
Instead of my daily question, I just want to wish and hope everyone is safe with this crazy weather.

🌷
I decorated it with items that I use on a regular basis in my kitchen, plus pretty little items. Oh and that cute cement pear also came in the March decor box.

🐰
Now that Valentines is over, it’s officially time for spring, at least in my mind. The weather may say otherwise, but I’ve been craving spring colors in my home. I went pretty neutral in my living room for winter, but I think I’m going to add some pastels. Now what color to add?
🐰
Last year if you followed me, I spent months trying to decide on what color to use. Ugh, I think I’m in the same boat again this year. I like yellows because it’s a happy color, but I also like pinks and blues. Oh the decisions.
🐰
I haven’t seem to much inspiration in the stores, though Target seems to have yellows and corals, plus a lot of neutrals. I’m seeing a lot of boho and woods. I do like woods with greenery.
🐰
What color doing you like to use in your home for Spring?

Happy Friday! We did it! Yesterday was a little bi Happy Friday! We did it! Yesterday was a little bit of rough day in my house. Woke up to see my sweet Sampson wasn’t feeling well.  He was just laying around, didn’t get up to greet me, and the biggest sign was he didn’t ask for a bone. You know how he’s obsessed with bones.
🐶
Around 9am he perked up and asked for a bone and wanted to go outside to snoop around. He seems to be better, but is still kind of laying around. I just hope he will be okay. He’s 11, and I get so worried. He’s my child.
🐶
I’m sharing with you my pretty tulips from Trader Joe’s. They have such a great selection of tulips in array of colors. Though I didn’t see any roses, which is strange. We do not have any plans for the weekend, that I know of, but we have the tendency to wing it.  I’ll keep you posted. Hope you have a wonderful Valentines weekend!

Hello Friday’s Eve! Today after work I’ll most Hello Friday’s Eve! Today after work I’ll most likely be heading to Trader Joe’s and I have to get my husband a Valentines gift. I would get him his favorite, chocolate, but he bought himself a ton of chocolate last weekend, so I’ll have to think of something else. Maybe he’ll like flowers from Trader Joe’s? Lol
🌸
Speaking of flowers, check out my new, gorgeous marble and wood cutting board that I got from my friend Brantley from @thesassyoak. I love the engraved flowers in it. It is so pretty.
🌸
The cutting board is her newest item at her Etsy shop. She engraves different items, like your name, but for me it is flowers. I’ll always keep the cutting board displayed. I think it is far to pretty to use. I’m afraid someone would scratch it.
🌸
Do you use cutting boards or just use them as display?

Happy Wednesday! My bathroom refresh should be co Happy Wednesday!  My bathroom refresh should be completed, I think this weekend? That means I get to go shopping for some new pieces to add to the bathroom. I am on the search for is some new open shelves to go above the toilet. If you have any suggestions on where to get some, let me know.
❤️
I wasn’t going to, but I decided to do a small Valentines table setting. I couldn’t resist the small white plates with the little red heart in the middle that I got from @williamssonoma. It was the first thing I bought after my no home decor buying for 30 days.
❤️
I love the simplicity of the table. It’s a small space, so I do not like to go to overboard on the decor. I added a little gift of candy hearts to bring together the reds and of course to eat.
❤️
Do you have any special plans for Valentines Day?

Hello everyone! Happy Tuesday! This weekend I clea Hello everyone! Happy Tuesday! This weekend I cleaned my kitchen sink area. It was filling up with daffodils and tulips and my husband said he feels like he’s in a greenhouse. I said they are bulbs, they won’t be there forever. Well they did poop out so I cleaned up my area to make more room for new plants.
🤣
You know when you take a photo and you realize something is in the wrong spot, so you fix it and take a photo again? Or maybe you see a crumb, a dog hair tumbleweed and you have to clean up and take a photo again. We’ll here’s my story.
😂
I took a photo of the kitchen sink area and I saw in the photo a smear mark on the dishwasher. So I cleaned the dishwasher. Then I took a photo again and I saw that smear mark again. So I scrubbed the dishwasher and ended up up cleaning all of my cabinets.
😂
I took the photo again and I saw that smear looking mark in my photo. What the heck? I examined the dishwasher and I’m thinking it’s so clean and smooth. I don’t get what that smear mark is. It was driving me crazy!!
🤣
Then it hit me. It was the reflection of the dog food dish in the dishwasher. Sigh.... All that scrubbing and I could have just moved the bowl. Well now I have a clean dishwasher and cabinets.
🤦‍♀️
Has this ever happened to you?
