Technically no. I was not paid to write this post or share this recipe with you. I was sent a few items and coupons for Driscoll’s berries from the feed feed and Driscoll’s in exchange for a post on social media. But since I like to go above and beyond I decided to share the recipe on here as well.

It’s seriously way too good not to share, plus I am truly a huge Driscoll’s fan so I thought it was a match made in heaven 🙂

How to make blueberry cheese danish

• 

Start by rolling your cold (but not frozen) puff pastry dough on a floured surface to an 11 by 11 inch square. Cut the dough into a 3 by 3 grid, making 9 equal squares. Using a sharp knife score a smaller square inside each piece, about ¼-inch from the edge. (make sure to not cut all the way through) Poke the center of the puff pastry squares with a fork to make sure that that ares doesn’t puff up. Set aside.

In a small bowl, mix the softened cream cheese with the sugar. Then using a measuring spoon, scoop out a heaping tablespoon of cream cheese mixture and place it in the center of the puff pastry squares. Gently spread it, making sure to stay clear from the edges.

In a different small bowl, mix the blueberry jam with the fresh blueberries and scoop out a heaping tablespoon on top of the cream cheese mixture them. Gently spread again, avoiding the puff pastry edge.

Now, beat the egg with the water and brush the edges of the pastry with the egg wash. Bake on a parchment lined baking sheet for 16 minutes. Dust with powdered sugar and enjoy!
