Step-by-Step Instructions for Raspberry Cream Cheese Cruffins

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Gather ingredients and equipment.
Lightly flour your countertop and roll out the thawed puff pastry to a large rectangle, about 1/8-inch thick.
Mix softened cream cheese with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until smooth. Spread over the rolled-out pastry.
Layer a thin coating of raspberry preserves over the cream cheese filling.
Roll the pastry tightly into a log and slice into 1.5-inch wide strips.
Twist each strip and place it in the greased muffin tin with the twisted end facing up.
Bake for 22-25 minutes until golden brown. Keep an eye on the baking process.
Let them cool slightly in the pan for about 5 minutes, then dust with powdered sugar before serving.
