Notes

- Cream Cheese Consistency: Ensure cream cheese is fully softened at room temperature for smooth, lump-free mixing that spreads easily.
- Berry Distribution: Use fresh, firm blueberries and pat them dry to prevent excess moisture from making the pastry soggy during baking.
- Rolling Technique: Seal edges firmly when rolling to prevent filling from leaking and maintain a compact, attractive pastry shape.
