I have been on a blueberry kick lately and cannot get enough of these delicious little gems bursting with amazing flavor. And, this blueberry cream cheese pastry is my newest recipe which is absolutely delish.
The cream cheese mixture, mixed with the blueberry filling, tastes so delicious and just makes this blueberry danish so yummy, addicting and a family favorite.
Blueberry Pastry
Making this blueberry pastry is really pretty simple and doesn’t take much time at all. Just lay out the crescent triangles on a baking sheet and form a shape that resembles the sun. Cook the blueberry filling, mix up the cream cheese mixture and add both to the crescent ring. Fold the small tip of the crescent over the filling and tuck under to secure, then bake. That’s it, pretty easy for an incredibly delicious blueberry dessert that is to die for.
