I’m such a sucker for lemon and cream cheese together (if blueberries are in the mix, well then that’s just a lovely bonus)!

 

Hi Nikki! My name is Ruby and I’m 9 years old. I’m learning how to cook and I made these today with my grandma Jane and they are awesome!! She made a blueberry sauce to serve on the top which made them even more incredible!
