Cut the
Puff Pastry (1 sheet)
into 3.5-inch squares. Place each square onto the prepared baking tray 2 inches apart. Cut 90-degree angles (L shape) into the corners of each square. If the pastry is sticking or too loose, place the baking tray in the freezer for 3 minutes and try again.

Fresh Blueberries (50 g)
into the looped part of the puff pastry. Brush the pastry with the egg wash again.
