Pro tip: Keep the door closed!
Resist the temptation to open the oven door during the first 10 mins of baking. Cold air affects the overall temperature and prevents the pastry from rising.
Here’s to perfect puff pastry.

🍒Cherry cheesecake strudel. YES PLEASE. This is an easy dessert to make and it comes together quickly. We used bottled Morello cherries but you could easily use fresh cherries, pitted then poached in a simple sugar syrup for a few minutes to soften them.

🍒Borg’s NEW Puff Pastry roll (available exclusively at Coles) is perfect for this dish. Defrost overnight then keep chilled until you’re ready to unroll, create and bake.

🍒You’ll need:
• 1 roll Borg’s Puff Pastry, thawed overnight
• 250g cream cheese at room temp
• ¼ cup icing sugar
• Zest of a lemon
• Juice of 1/2 a lemon
• 1 x 670g jar pitted morello cherries, well drained
• 1 egg, whisked
• Icing sugar to dust
• Cream or ice cream to serve

🍒To make:
• Preheat the oven to 220 C or 200 C fan forced and line a baking tray with baking paper
• Mix cream cheese, icing sugar, lemon zest and juice together until well combined. Add the drained cherries and mix gently. Taste for sweetness and add more icing sugar if needed
• Unroll the pastry and place it on the baking tray. Dollop the cherry mix down the centre and smooth
• Cut the pastry either side of the cherry mix into 2 cm strips on the diagonal. Encase the filling by braiding alternate strips of pastry over the filling. Crimp each end with your fingers or a fork and brush with eggwash
• Bake for 30-35 mins until puffed and golden
• Allow to cool for 20 mins, then dust with icing sugar and serve with cream or ice cream
