INGREDIENTS
1 sheet puff pastry (half of a 17.3-oz package), thawed
1 8-oz package cream cheese, softened
1/3 cup powdered sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 kiwifruit, peeled, halved lengthwise and sliced
1 cup fresh strawberries
1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
1/2 cup orange marmalade
PREPARATION
Preheat oven to 400˚F. Unroll thawed puff pastry and lay on baking sheet. Bake for 20 or until pastry has expanded and become golden brown on top. Remove from oven and set aside to cool.
In a medium bowl use a blender to whip together cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla extract. Once pastry is completely cool gently spread cream cheese frosting over the top. You can use a piping bag or zippered plastic baggie to pipe the frosting on instead so as to avoid crushing the delicate pastry.
Arrange fruit on top of frosting. Fruit pieces can be any size you like, but medium-sized pieces work best.
In a small, heat safe bowl microwave the orange marmalade. Heat for 20-40 until just beginning to thin. Use a basting brush to apply the heated marmalade on top of the fruit. This adds flavor, but also keeps the fruit looking fresher.
Cut into squares and serve immediately. Refrigerate any uneaten portions.
