In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, white sugar, milk, egg, and vanilla extract together until the mixture is smooth and creamy. (5 minutes)

04

Slowly pour the cream cheese mixture over each muffin cup, ensuring that the croissant cubes and strawberries are fully soaked. (5 minutes)

Bake in the preheated oven until the cups are set and evenly browned, approximately 30 to 40 minutes. (40 minutes)

06

07

Step

Before serving, dust generously with confectioners' sugar.

For extra flavor, consider adding a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg to the cream cheese mixture.
If you don't have stale croissants, you can lightly toast fresh ones to dry them out a bit.
These cups can be assembled ahead of time and baked just before serving.
Try using different berries, such as blueberries or raspberries, for a variation on this recipe.
