The store had a box of puff pastry with 10 squares (10 by 10 cm), Perfect!,,I got 2:o)
I filled 10 with cream cheese filling with a few teaspoons of blackberry jam, but most of the jam leaked out:o/....So next time i will try to do it differently.. I made them in to claws!!
I found a cream cheese filling (but I lost where I got it from :o(..)
100g cream cheese
1 egg yolk
2 Tbs. caster sugar
2 tsp. plain flour
2 tsp. lemon zest
1. Gently whisk together all ingredients in a small bowl. . Refridgerate until ready to use.
(You may need to make more filling, I made some more directly but i got some left)
The other was with (thick vanilla) custard! In Sweden we have a vanilla powder mix that you just mix with milk and you get vanilla sauce or..custard..or What ever you call it! You need to make it thicker then sauce. I had some custard left from the other day so maybe 1½ bags of mix(Swe mix!!) for 10 pastries... I didn´t check the amount but mabye 2..3 cups..Soooo.... Better make more and eat the left overs.. than wish you had more (My motto in life!)

| I made these round but you can do them however you want! |
I'm not sure the amount of custard, but maybe two tablespoons for each?
 |
| I had some black currant juice in the icing sugar for flavor and color on the claws! |
Bakers would probably get mad if I call them Danish pastry or Danish, and yes.. they doesn´t taste exactly the same but it is close! And it takes..like..20 min,depending on what you do! You can find recipes on the Internet in your language and how hot your oven should be and so on..In Sweden: about
200-225c, it said 10 min but i had them in for longer..They should be golden brown.
Give it a try!
