Blueberry Swirls – Ricotta & Blueberry Pastry Swirls

Blueberry Swirls

I had intended to do a fun Memorial Day dessert using lots of berries for my big cookout earlier this week. When my buddies all started texting letting me know that each of them had already planned on bringing other desserts, I decided that my dessert was unnecessary. I certainly didn’t need to add anything extra to my long to do list.

I did make a big bowl of fruit salad for the party but I still had a bunch of berries that needed to be used. I had considered a batch of blueberry muffins but that seemed kinda boring. I looked in my freezer and saw some puff pastry sheets and decided to see if I could whip up a tasty treat for the boys.

Now my first thought was to make a homemade toaster strudel but instead I thought about adding in something creamy. I looked for some cream cheese but there was none to be found. Luckily there was a tub of ricotta hiding on one of the shelves. In a few minutes I had a batch of delicious Blueberry Swirls baked up and the boys and their friends gobbled them up in a flash!

These were really easy and according to my guys these go in the “keeper” file! The great thing is that I have plenty of extra Blueberry syrup that I can use as a topping on the Sara Lee pound cake that’s hiding in my freezer. Gotta love when recipes pull double duty!
