Ingredients
  

  • 1 sheet of puff pastry thawed
  • 4 oz cream cheese softened
  • 3 tbsp granulated sugar
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
  • 1 egg beaten (for egg wash)
  • Powdered sugar for dusting, optional

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the Oven:
  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Prepare the Cream Cheese Filling:
  • In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy. Set aside.
  • Roll and Cut the Puff Pastry:
  • Lightly flour your work surface and unfold the puff pastry sheet. Roll it out slightly if needed to ensure even thickness. Cut the pastry into six equal rectangles or squares.
  • Assemble the Pastries:
  • Place a dollop of the cream cheese mixture in the center of each piece of puff pastry. Add a small handful of blueberries on top of the cream cheese.
  • Fold and Seal:
  • For turnovers, fold each piece of pastry diagonally to form a triangle. For open pastries, leave the filling exposed and gently fold the edges of the pastry up to create a border. Press the edges lightly with a fork to seal.
  • Apply the Egg Wash:
  • Brush the top and edges of the pastry with the beaten egg to ensure a golden, shiny crust.
  • Bake:
  • Transfer the pastries to the prepared baking sheet and bake for 18–22 minutes, or until the pastries are puffed and golden brown.
  • Cool and Dust:
  • Let the pastries cool on a wire rack for a few minutes. Dust with powdered sugar if desired.
  • Serve and Enjoy:
  • Serve warm or at room temperature. These are best enjoyed the same day but can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
