Blueberry Dessert with Cream Cheese Puff Pastry
This blueberry dessert is a mix of sweet blueberries and creamy cheese in flaky pastry. The blueberry taste goes well with the rich cream cheese. Together, they make a tasty mix of flavors and textures.
To make the cream cheese filling, you’ll need:
- 8 ounces of cream cheese
- 1 egg yolk
- ⅓ cup of sugar
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla
- 1 teaspoon of lemon juice
Mix these together until they’re smooth and creamy. This makes sure every bite is delicious.
Next, prepare the blueberry filling with these items:
- 18 ounces of fresh blueberries
- ⅓ cup of sugar
- 2 tablespoons of brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon of lemon zest
- 1 tablespoon of lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon of cornstarch
Stir these gently. This lets the blueberries’ natural sweetness stand out in the dessert.
Now, let’s put it all together. Roll out the pastry into rectangles. Put the cream cheese mix on one half of each sheet. Add blueberry mix on top of the cream cheese. Fold the pastry over to cover the fillings.
Bake them at 400°F (200°C) for 15 to 20 minutes. They should turn golden brown and flaky. Let them cool a bit before serving.
Add a dusting of powdered sugar before serving for extra sweetness and style.
You can switch the blueberries for raspberries or blackberries if you like. Add citrus zest or chocolate for a new twist on the recipe.
Keep any leftovers in the fridge for up to four days. You can freeze them for a month.

Blueberry Chamomile Galette
This blueberry galette is a delightfully rustic dessert that captures summer’s flavors. It’s made with fresh blueberries and the gentle scent of chamomile. Such a blend makes this galette a joy for the senses.
First, we infuse honey with chamomile tea bags. This blend’s soothing aroma pairs beautifully with the blueberries’ sweetness. It creates a flavor like no other. Next, we mix this honey with blueberries, cornstarch, lemon juice, and a touch of vanilla. This allows the flavors to come together nicely.
Then, we wrap the sweet and fragrant filling in a buttery pastry. A sheet of puff pastry holds the blueberry mix. It’s folded into a rustic, attractive galette. Once baked, it turns golden brown. The crust becomes crisp and flaky, while the filling bubbles and delights.
Serve it warm and watch as the aroma fills the air. Adding a scoop of creamy vanilla ice cream makes it even better. It’s a dessert that brings the summer flavors to life. You can also try different berries to mix things up, as the recipe is quite flexible.
