Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
On a lightly floured surface, unfold the puff pastry sheets and cut each sheet into 4 equal squares, yielding 8 squares total.
In a medium bowl, mix the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
Place about 1 tablespoon of the cream cheese mixture in the center of each puff pastry square.
Top the cream cheese mixture with a few diced strawberries.
In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and water to make an egg wash.
Brush the edges of each puff pastry square with the egg wash. Fold the corners of each square up and over the filling, pinching the edges together to seal the bundle.
Transfer the bundles to the prepared baking sheet. Brush the tops with the remaining egg wash and sprinkle granulated sugar over each bundle.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the bundles are golden brown and puffed.
Allow the bundles to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm or at room temperature!
