PINEAPPLE QUESITO



Pineapple Quesito image

This is a Quesito -- perfect in its simplicity: flaky puff pastry wrapped around sweetened cream cheese and buttery pineapple. It's beautiful in a shabby chic kind of way, nothing fussy, just rustic goodness with a generous dusting of powdered sugar. The best thing is that you can whip this together in about 10 minutes and instantly satisfy your craving for something sweet. The Quesito is a traditional breakfast pastry from Puerto Rico. You can find them in every bakery and coffee shop, filled with everything from guava paste, passion fruit and pineapple. They are also delicious with nothing but the sweetened cheese.

Time 1h25m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 cups fresh pineapple, chopped into small pieces
1 vanilla bean, split and seeds scraped out
1/2 cup (4 ounces) cream cheese, room temperature
2 teaspoons sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Pastry:
2 sheets puff pastry, thawed
Egg wash (1 egg beat with 1 tablespoon water)
Sugar, for sprinkling on the pastry
Confectioners' (powdered) sugar for dusting the baked pastry

Steps:

  • To make the quesitos:
  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Line two baking trays with parchment paper.
  • In saucepan melt the butter over medium heat; add the brown sugar, pineapple and vanilla bean, with the seeds. Cook until the pineapple is tender and the juices have thickened to a syrup. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly while you make the cheese filling.
  • To make cheese filling: In a bowl mix together the cream cheese, sugar and vanilla until smooth.
  • Cut the puff pastry into 4- to 5-inch squares, depending on the size of the puff pastry sheet you have. Spread the cheese filling in the middle of each piece of pastry.
  • Place the pineapples over the cheese filling. Brush the points of the pastry with the egg wash. Fold one side over the filling, and then tuck the other point under the pastry, to create a roll.
  • Tuck the points under the filled pastry, which will puff up high and keep the filling in the center.
  • Brush with more egg wash and sprinkle generously with sugar.
  • Bake for about 25 minutes or until golden brown and crisp. You may have to rotate the two trays, top to bottom and back to front, to make sure they are baking evenly. They will be light and puffy when they are done. Allow them to cool.
  • Dust with confectioners' sugar.
  • They are fantastic with a cup of coffee.

Time 2h50m

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
4 eggs
1 ½ cups whole milk
1 (13.25 ounce) can sliced pineapple in heavy syrup, syrup reserved
1 tablespoon coconut-flavored rum (such as Malibu®)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
