Preheat oven to 400 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil. Set aside.
Roll thawed puff pastry and divide into 6 squares with a pizza cutter.
Place 1 tablespoon of strawberry jam into the center of each square.
Take the cream cheese and cube it into 6 equal-sized pieces. Place each cube on a cut pastry square in the center.
Take a corner of the pastry square and fold it over to meet the opposite one, forming a triangle. Press down along the edges to seal.
Use a fork to crimp the pastry edges to create an even better seal.
In a small bowl, beat the egg with the water for your egg wash.
Place turnovers on a baking sheet.
Brush egg wash over the tops of the turnovers.
Bake for 15 minutes or until golden brown.
Let cool on the sheet for a minute or two before transferring to a wire cooling rack.
After whisking together the glaze ingredients, drizzle the glaze over the tops of the turnovers.
Let set for 5 minutes before eating. The filling will be VERY hot when fresh out of the oven.
