Blueberry Puffs




I honestly don’t know what’s better than waking up on a Saturday morning and making breakfast. It’s literally one of life’s simplest joys. While looking for Saturday morning breakfast ideas that weren’t my usual yogurt and granola breakfast, I ran across a picture of honey blueberry fold-overs. I clicked on the recipe only to find out that it wasn’t linked correctly. I was so bummed but decided to play around with some ingredients until I came up with these! I was so happy with how they turned out, and once they are baked they are so so beautiful. These pastries are perfect for any time you need to whip something up quick that’s a total crowd pleaser – or just something for Saturday morning breakfast to accompany your coffee!

Blueberry Puffs (Yields 18)

Allow for 40 minutes for the pastry to thaw and 20 minutes to assemble


Ingredients

1 box of Pepperidge Farm Frozen Puff Pastry
1 egg white
1 carton of washed blueberries
For filling
1 8 oz package of plain cream cheese
1 Tbsp. honey (or more – to taste)
1 Tbsp. powdered sugar (or more – to taste)
Lemon juice – to taste

Instructions

  1. Unbox the puff pastry and let it thaw according to the instructions on the box.
  2. Preheat the oven to 400°F and place tin foil on a baking sheet.  
  3. While the puff pastry is thawing, prepare the filling by mixing the cream cheese, honey, powdered sugar, and lemon juice until smooth,
  4. Once the puff pastry is thawed, cut each sheet into 9 square pieces. Do your best to handle the dough as little as possible as it is a really sensitive dough. Place a dollop of filling onto each piece of dough and spread the filling just a bit.
  5. Place 2-3 blueberries on the filling and fold the pastry squares by taking one set of opposing corners and bringing them into the middle. Crimp them together slightly.
  6. Lightly beat an egg white with a fork and brush the egg wash gently over the puff pastry to give the pastries shine.
  7. Gently transfer 9 of the pastries onto the baking sheet and place in the oven for 15 minutes or until golden. The pastries will most likely unfold.
  8. Using a sifter, dust ¼ cup of powdered sugar onto the pastries as a garnish.

Pineapple Poke Cake

Happy Memorial Weekend y'all! I love easy cake recipes. They take no time to accomplish, and they're an easy crowd pleaser. With triple-digit heat on the horizon in Dallas, I wanted to make something a little summery in time for the weekend and after playing around with a few ideas, a poke cake seemed to be the winner. I initially wanted to try this with peaches and cream, but I couldn't find peaches in my cabinet so pineapple won. With that being said, this recipe can be used with a variety of canned fruit so get creative, and don't forget to tell me what you tried! Pineapple Poke Cake 1 can of crushed pineapple 1 cup of coconut cream 1 box of white cake mix (yellow works too) 1 1/2 cup of brown sugar Instructions Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and grease the bottom of a 13x9 baking pan. Mix the cake mix per the instructions on the box. Pour the cake mix into the baking pan and spread 1/2 cup of brown sugar all over the top of the cake. Bake acco

A Little Intro

Hi, Y'all!  I'm so glad you've come across my little corner of the internet! I am a Dallas native currently spending time in College Station while pursuing a degree in Political Science at Texas A&M University. I am an Aggie through and through as evidenced by my love for Fightin' (for touchdowns at the very last minute because honestly my sanity means nothing to them) Texas Aggie football. This fall I will begin as a student at the Bush School of Government and Public Service to obtain my master's degree. It's been my hope to start a blog since my 10th grade English class when my teacher challenged us to go a day without social media and blog about it. I loved the experience and getting my voice out, but I didn't realize my passion for writing until I started writing for the Odyssey Online this year.  Along with writing, I also have a love for working out, reading, baking, watching "Say Yes to the Dress" with my mom, e

Spill Sesh no. 1 - He is Making All Things Beautiful in His Time

"He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in the human heart, yet no one can fathom what God has done from beginning to end." Ecclesiastes 3:11 When I was younger, I would read this verse and relate it back to what I saw in the mirror – an imperfect, pimply, brace-faced 13-year-old who was trying to find some truth in her current season of life. I interpreted this as a promise that the current season would someday pass; I would one day grow out of my awkward teenage self, and become “beautiful.” In my selfishness, I interpreted this verse as being a hope for my outward perfection, rather than a promise of how God uses our hurt for His kingdom. Throughout my life, I have strived for perfection and focused so much energy on my inability to attain it. When I was little I truly believed my life was perfect, but that changed as soon as I found out I had OCD. My struggle with OCD over a four-year period resulted in many sleepless nights for
