# Step-by-Step Guide:
01 - Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a large baking tray with parchment paper.
02 - In a mixing bowl, combine cream cheese, Gruyère, chives, parsley, garlic, bell pepper, zucchini, salt, and black pepper until evenly blended.
03 - Roll out puff pastry sheets on a lightly floured surface. Cut each sheet into 6 rectangular pieces, yielding 12 in total.
04 - Place a heaping tablespoon of filling along the long edge of each rectangle. Roll each tightly, pinching seams to seal.
05 - Arrange rolls seam-side down in a circular pattern on the baking tray, slightly overlapping to create a crown shape.
06 - Whisk egg yolk with milk and brush the mixture evenly over the rolls to ensure a golden crust.
07 - Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes, or until the rolls are puffed and golden brown.
08 - Allow the crown to cool for 5 minutes before serving. Present as a centerpiece for guests to pull apart.
