Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper.

In a small bowl, whisk the egg yolk and water and set aside.

Roll out pie dough until it is about 1/16th of an inch thick. Cut dough into 12 2.5” X 3.5” rectangles. (Reroll dough, as needed.)

Place 6 of the rectangles on the sheet pan, spread 1 heaping tsp. of cream cheese on each, leaving ¼” border around the edge. Layer 1 heaping tsp. strawberry jam on top of the cream cheese, again leaving ¼” border.

Take the remaining 6 rectangles, using the strawberry hearts as a guide, cut a heart out of each center. *

Place a carved strawberry heart in the center of each jam covered rectangle. Top with the rectangles with the hearts carved out of the center.

Seal the edges with the prongs of a fork and brush with egg wash. Sprinkle heavily with the course sugar.

Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown. Transfer to a cooling rack and allow to cool at least five minutes.

Recipe slightly adapted from The Novice Chef
