Ingredients
Scale
- 1 sheet puff pastry, thawed
- 4 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup fresh blueberries

- Roll out the thawed puff pastry lightly on a floured surface and cut it into four equal squares.
- Spoon about one tablespoon of the cream cheese filling into the center of each pastry square and top with fresh blueberries.
