# How to Make It:
01 -
Turn your oven to 200°C. Put parchment paper on your baking tray.
02 -
Grab a bowl and mix your soft cream cheese with powdered sugar and vanilla until it's nice and smooth. Put it aside for now.
03 -
In another bowl, mix your blueberries with the cornstarch and lemon juice so they're all covered nicely.
04 -
Dust your counter with a bit of flour. Roll the pastry out to about 30x40 cm. Then cut it into 8 pieces, each around 10x15 cm.
05 -
Put a spoon of cream cheese mix right in the middle of each pastry piece. Add some blueberry mix on top.
06 -
Fold the pastry edges over your filling to make little packets. Press the edges down so they stay closed.
07 -
Stir the egg and milk together in a small bowl. Brush this mix over your pastries to help them get golden.
08 -
Put your pastries on the tray and bake for about 15–18 minutes until they've puffed up and turned golden.
09 -
Move your pastries to a wire rack to cool down a bit. Sprinkle with extra powdered sugar before eating if you'd like.
# Extra Information:
01 -
Make sure your cream cheese isn't cold or you'll end up with lumps.
02 -
Work quickly when handling the pastry so it doesn't warm up too much before baking.
