1 Place cream cheese in the freezer for 15 minutes before preparation.
2 Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
3 Slice butter into 12 slices. Place 2 slices vertically in 6 sections on the prepared baking sheet. Top each set of butter slices with 1 tablespoon brown sugar.
4 Slice partially frozen cream cheese into 12 slices. Set 2 slices side by side on top of brown sugar sections.
5 Lightly roll puff pastry on a lightly floured surface. Cut pastry sheet into 6 rectangles. Press pastry around each mound of cream cheese mixture, pressing slightly down on the cream cheese. Use a fork to crimp the edges of each pastry. Brush pastries with beaten egg.
6 Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown and flaky, 15 to 18 minutes. Let stand on the baking sheet for 10 minutes before carefully turning over.
7 Meanwhile, whisk together confectioner’s sugar and milk until smooth. Drizzle desired amount of icing over pastries.
