📝 Preparation Steps
1
If your puff pastry is frozen, let it sit at room temperature until it’s soft enough to handle, about ⏱️ 40 minutes. If it’s defrosted, unwrap it and let it sit for about ⏱️ 5 minutes.
2
Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silpat baking mat.
3
Mix cream cheese, egg yolk, vanilla, and sugar in a medium sized bowl using a hand mixer. Mix until mostly smooth (some lumps may remain).

4
Cut your pastry sheet into 6 equal rectangles. Place about 1-1 1/2 tablespoons of cream cheese mixture in the center of each rectangle. Top with a piece of chocolate (about 1/4 ounce or 1 tablespoon chocolate chips). Roll up each rectangle, pinching the seams. Brush with a little of the reserved egg white with the tip of your finger.

6
To make topping (optional) melt the 1/3 cup chocolate chips and oil in a microwave safe bowl in ⏱️ 30 second increments, stirring between each. Place chocolate in a ziploc bag, cut off one tip, and drizzle over the top of each danish.
