These Blueberry Cream Cheese Puff Pastry Squares are light and airy, the flaky layers of puff pastry are filled with a deliciously zesty cream cheese and topped with juicy blueberries. These are an easy to make sweet treat you can make in under 30 minutes and are great for brunch or a summer gathering.
In a bowl use an electric hand mixer to whip together the cream cheese, lemon zest, lemon juice, egg yolk and honey. Whip for approximately 3 minutes until its a thick smooth consistency.
Lay the puff pastry sheet out on a well floured surface.
Cut the puff pastry into squares approximately 3 inches x 3 inches in size (you should get approximately 12-16 squares in a sheet)
Place the squares on a parchment paper lined baking sheet ensuring they are spread out and not touching. Very gently using a knife create a square inside each square, Make sure to only gently score the puff pastry and not cut the whole way through. Then use a fork to prick a few times inside each square.
Add a spoonful of the cream cheese mixture to the center of each square and then top with approximately 5 blueberries.
In a small bowl whisk together the egg and water and brush the egg wash around the edges of each square.
Transfer to the oven to make for 16-18 minutes until the puff pastry is golden brown in color.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool before placing the icing sugar in a small mesh sieve and shaking over the squares to dust.
