What we are eating - Fruit and Cream Cheese Breakfast Pastries

 Fruit and Cream Cheese Breakfast Pastries 

Last week when I made the Quiche Lorraine Bites I also made these adorable little breakfast pastries. They have a wonderful flaky crust made from puff pastry, a yummy cream cheese center and fruit on top.  You could use any in season fruit - I obviously chose blueberries and raspberries.  I personally thought these were wonderful.  A little bit "fancy" and fun for sure.  They were super easy to pull together and stayed fresh for several days (verses drying out).  The only kicker?  My family didn't like them HA!  Well, that's not completely fair.  Darryl kind of liked them but he also told me he really doesn't like flaky crust.  He'd prefer these be made with crescent rolls or something more dough like and less flaky! 

All in all, I would make these again especially for a small gathering or a ladies group or even for my co-op!  One down side is that this recipe, using one package of dough (two sheets) only makes 8 pastries so you'd have to double or triple this recipe for a crowd which makes it a little more of an expensive treat!
