# What You'll Need:
→ Puff Pastry
01 - 2 sheets frozen puff pastry, thawed

02 - 8 oz cream cheese, softened
03 - 1/4 cup sour cream
04 - 2 tablespoons honey
05 - 1/4 teaspoon salt
→ Cranberry Jalapeño Topping
06 - 1 cup fresh or frozen cranberries, chopped
07 - 1 medium jalapeño, seeded and finely diced
08 - 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped
09 - 2 tablespoons green onions, thinly sliced
10 - 2 tablespoons sugar
11 - 1 tablespoon lime juice
→ Garnish (optional)

13 - Finely diced jalapeño
# Steps to Follow:
01 - Preheat oven to 400°F. Lightly grease a 24-cup mini muffin tin.
02 - Roll out thawed puff pastry sheets on a lightly floured surface. Cut each sheet into 12 equal squares for a total of 24 pieces. Gently press each square into the mini muffin tin, creating small pastry cups.
03 - In a mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese, sour cream, honey, and salt together until smooth and creamy.
04 - In a separate bowl, combine cranberries, jalapeño, cilantro, green onions, sugar, and lime juice. Mix thoroughly and let stand for 10 minutes to allow flavors to develop.
05 - Place approximately 1 teaspoon of the cream cheese mixture into each puff pastry cup.
06 - Spoon a small quantity of the cranberry jalapeño mixture on top of the cream cheese in each cup.
07 - Bake for 18 to 20 minutes, or until the pastry cups are golden brown and crisp.
08 - Allow pastries to cool in the tin for 5 minutes before removing. Garnish with extra cilantro and jalapeño if desired. Serve warm or at room temperature.
