Dry Ingredients
- 🍚 1 tablespoon white sugar

- 🧂 ⅛ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup powdered sugar, divided
- ¼ cup all-purpose flour, or as needed
Fresh Ingredients
- 🍓 2 cups fresh raspberries, divided
- 🍊 2 teaspoons finely grated orange zest
- 🌰 ¼ cup toasted sliced almonds
Dairy
- 🧀 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
- 🥛 6 tablespoons heavy cream, divided

- ⅛ teaspoon ground cardamom
- ⅛ teaspoon almond extract

STEPS
Whisk together white sugar, cornstarch, and salt in a small saucepan. Stir in 1 cup of the raspberries and cook over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally and mashing raspberries until the sauce thickens, about 4 minutes. Remove and cool for 10 minutes.
Beat cream cheese, 1/4 cup powdered sugar, 1 tablespoon heavy cream, orange zest, cardamom, and almond extract with a mixer until smooth. Chill until ready to use.
Roll 1 sheet of puff pastry into a 12x9-inch rectangle on floured parchment paper. Cut diagonal strips on each side, leaving the center 3 inches uncut. Spread 1/2 cup cream cheese filling in the center and top with 3 tablespoons of the raspberry mixture.
Sprinkle with 1/2 cup raspberries. Fold the pastry strips over the filling to create a braid. Repeat with the remaining puff pastry and filling.
Brush pastries with egg wash. Transfer to baking sheets and freeze for 1 hour.
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Bake pastries for 30 to 35 minutes, rotating sheets halfway through. Cool on baking sheets for 30 minutes.
Whisk together remaining 5 tablespoons cream and 3/4 cup powdered sugar. Drizzle over cooled pastries and sprinkle with almonds.
