• ½ (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease 9 cups of a muffin tin; place tin on a baking sheet.

Step 2

Divide croissant cubes evenly among greased muffin cups. Press strawberries into and on top of the cubes.

Step 3

Beat cream cheese, white sugar, milk, egg, and vanilla extract together in a large bowl until smooth. Pour over each muffin cup slowly until croissant cubes and strawberries are fully soaked.

Step 4

Bake in the preheated oven until set and evenly browned, 30 to 40 minutes. Cool in the muffin tin for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely, about 30 minutes. Dust with confectioners' sugar before serving.
