Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 20 minutes
Total Time: 35 minutes
Servings: 10

Ingredients

  • 1 puff pastry sheet (thawed)
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tsps. ground cinnamon
  • 1 stick butter (melted)
  • 1 block cream cheese (soften)
  • 6 tbsps. butter (soften)
  • 1 tsp. vanilla
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • 2 cups powdered sugar (sifted)

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 450°.
  • Roll the puff pastry out on a cutting board.
  • Cut the pastry in half lengthwise, then slice each half into 1-inch strips.
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly spray with nonstick spray.
  • Arrange the pastry strips in a single layer on the baking sheet.
  • Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until golden brown.
  • While the pastry bakes, combine the granulated sugar and cinnamon in a shallow bowl.
  • Once the strips come out of the oven, dip them into the melted butter, then coat generously in the cinnamon sugar mixture.
  • Place the coated strips on a wire rack and let them set.
  • While the strips are drying, prepare the frosting.
  • In a mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese and butter with an electric mixer until smooth.
  • Add the powdered sugar and mix until fully combined, then blend in the vanilla and heavy cream.
  • For a thinner, more glaze-like consistency, add a little more heavy cream or microwave the frosting for about 30 seconds.
  • Serve warm or at room temperature with the frosting for dipping.
