For the Cream Cheese Mixture
For the Apple Filling
In a medium saucepan over low heat, bring water, cornstarch, sugar, cinnamon and lemon juice to a boil, stirring constantly.
Continue stirring for 3-4 minutes until the sauce thickens up.
Once the sauce has thickened, add apples, stir and let simmer for 8-10 minutes or until the apples are tender..
For the Cream Cheese Mixture
In a medium mixing bowl, beat cream cheese until fluffy, about 2 minutes.
Add sugar, egg yolk, vanilla, lemon juice and beat for an additional 2 minutes.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out seams on the puff pastry.
Cut each dough in half and then cut each strip into 3 pieces (will end up with 12 pieces).
Place each pastry dough on the prepared baking sheet(s).
Add a tablespoon of cream cheese mixture and a tablespoon of apple filling to the center of each pastry.
Score the edges (about ½ inch from the edge) making a square, but do not go all the way through.
Brush the edges with egg wash.
Bake in preheated oven for 12-14 minutes or until golden.
Remove from oven and once cool, drizzle with glaze over the top and enjoy.
For the Glaze Drizzle
In a small bowl, mix the powdered sugar, milk and vanilla together until combined.
Once the pastries have cooled, drizzle with glaze.
