- 2 sheets of frozen puff pastry, thawed
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup fresh blueberries
- 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar (for sprinkling)
- Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth and creamy.
- Roll out each sheet of puff pastry on a lightly floured surface to smooth out creases. Cut each sheet into 4 squares.
- Place a tablespoon of the cream cheese mixture in the center of each pastry square. Top with a few blueberries.
- Fold the corners of the pastry squares over the filling to create a pocket. Pinch the edges to seal tightly.
- Brush the tops of the pastries with the beaten egg and sprinkle with granulated sugar.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown and puffed.
- Allow to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm or at room temperature.
Notes
- For a fruity twist, substitute blueberries with raspberries or strawberries.
- Add a sprinkle of lemon zest to the cream cheese mixture for a refreshing citrus flavor.
