Fresh Peach Tart

 Ingredients

• 1 puff pastry sheet, thawed
• 1 egg
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• 2 fresh peaches
• 8 oz. cream cheese, softened
• ⅔ cup powdered sugar
• ½ teaspoon vanilla
• 1 tablespoon honey
• ½ teaspoon fresh thyme, minced (optional)
• 2 tablespoons apple jelly, warm(I used homemade peach jam)
  

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 375°
2. On a floured surface cute (four) 4" squares out of the puff pastry
3. Place each square on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper
4. Lightly score about ½" around each with a sharp knife being careful not to cut through the dough (square shape)
5. Beat an egg and brush the scored edge with egg mixture (will not need all mixture)
6. Sprinkle sugar on egg mixture and bake for about 20 minutes until golden brown
7. Remove from oven and re-score the edge and lightly push down the center of each square and cool completely on a wire rack
8. In a medium bowl combine the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, vanilla, honey and thyme and beat until creamy
9. Slice a peach into 12 wedges (or 8 wedges - then will need 2 peaches)
10. Place about 2-3 tablespoons cream cheese mixture on each square
11. Top with 3 peach slices
12. Brush warmed jelly over the peaches
13. Cover and refrigerate until served or serve immediately
14. You will probably have some cream cheese mixture leftover.  Picture and recipe from Cooking On the Front Burners.
