Ingredients
  

  • 4 ounces Cream Cheese softened
  • 1-2 tablespoons Powdered Sugar plus more for dusting
  • 1 teaspoon Lemon Zest
  • 1/2 teaspoon Pure Almond Extract
  • 1 cup Blueberries
  • 1 tablespoon Granulated Sugar
  • 1 sheet Puff Pastry thawed
  • 1 Egg
  • 1 tablespoon Water

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or silicone liner.
  • In a small bowl, mix together cream cheese, powdered sugar, lemon zest, and almond extract until well-blended.
  • Toss the blueberries with the granulated sugar.
  • Roll out the puff pastry into an approximate square and cut into 9 squares. Make a cut in each corner halfway to the middle.
  • Spoon some of the cream cheese mixture into the center of the square, then top with blueberries. Fold in every other corner to the center to create a pinwheel shape. Repeat with remaining ingredients.
  • Whisk together the egg and water, then brush over the pastries.
  • Bake for 20 minutes, or until golden brown. Let cool and dust with powdered sugar, if desired.
