Preheat the oven to 400 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
Blueberry Filling
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, add in blueberries, sugar, lemon juice, and cornstarch. Stirring continuously, cook until berries start to burst, and a thick sauce forms.
Remove from heat and let cool.
Pastry
Cut each pastry sheet into 16 strips.
Twist the strip until it forms a braided piece.
Place one end of the long, twisted strip down onto the parchment paper and wrap the dough around it, starting in the center and creating a pinwheel base.
Cream Cheese Mixture
In a medium bowl, beat cream cheese until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add egg yolk, sugar, vanilla, and lemon juice. Beat for 2 more minutes.
Add a heaping spoonful of cream cheese mixture to the center of each pastry followed by a spoonful of blueberry filling.
Egg Wash
In a small bowl, whisk egg and water together until combined.
Brush easy pastry with egg wash.
Bake for 15-17 minutes, or until golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let cool.
Glaze Drizzle
Once the pastries have cooled, mix powdered sugar, lemon juice and vanilla together.
Drizzle each pastry with glaze and enjoy.
