To make the cheese filling, combine softened cream cheese, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, egg yolk, and optional lemon zest. Set aside in the fridge.

To make the egg wash, whisk together the egg and whole milk and set aside.

Preheat oven to 400°F. Roll out 2 sheets of puff pastry and punch out large hearts.

Using a knife or a smaller heart cutter, make an indentation slightly smaller than the big heart cut out all around but do not cut all the way through.

Brush the edges of each heart with the egg wash. Add the cheese filling to the center and spread just to the edges of the smaller heart. Top with the fruit and add a sprinkle of granulated sugar around the edges.

Bake in the oven for 14 to 16 minutes or until beautifully golden.

Allow to cool and then dust with powdered sugar on top.
